A readable paper for most people:
http://www.pcg-random.org/pdf/toms-oneill-pcg-family-v1.02.pdf

«some users would prefer a much stronger property analogous to
uniformity: that over the full period of the generator, every 
possible k-tuple will occur,
and it will occur the same number of times.»

PCG claims to have arbitrary cycle sizes.

I haven't looked at it, but it is available as C/C++.
