<?php
function unique_rand_numbers($min=1,$max=40,$inc=1,$num=25){
 $rand_keys = array_rand(range($min,$max,$inc),$num);
 sort($rand_keys);
 return $rand_keys;
}

print_r(unique_rand_numbers());
echo "<br /><br /><br />";
print_r(unique_rand_numbers(1,50,1,6));
?>

If you need a list of numbers in an array, range() can save some time. I've included optional parameters in the function, but you can take these out and hardcode your values if you want.
