When using the DocuSign frame on documents, are the number below the signature randomly assigned? 

For example, if I sign numerous documents - will the numbers below my name at the bottom of the frame always be the same? Or do they change from document to document?

Please see below (the identifying signature has been removed)

The numbers below the signature, part of a signing frame, are not randomly assigned. These numbers, typically the signing certificate information, such as the document ID, timestamp, and other audit trail details, are unique to each document.

When you sign multiple documents, the numbers (like the document ID or audit trail details) will differ from document to document, reflecting the unique identifier and specific signing event. This ensures that each document has a unique signature record, making the signing process secure and traceable.

So, the numbers you see below your name in the signing frame will change for each document, as they are associated with that specific signing event and document.
