This program  is real slow on my machine.
Show a lean toward positive differences that is "slight" at 2000 digits. 

Digits=2000
$MaxExtraPrecision = Digits
(* Sum of the sign of the differences between the first 2000 digits of Pi*)
f[m_]=Sum[Sign[Floor[Mod[10^(n+1)*Pi,10]]-Floor[Mod[10^n*Pi,10]]],{n,0,m}]
a=Table[{n,f[n]},{n,0,Digits-1}];
ListPlot[a,PlotJoined->True]
b=Table[a[[n]][[2]],{n,1,Dimensions[a][[1]]}];
(* distribution of the noise that results*)
c=Table[Count[b,m],{m,-12,12}]
ListPlot[c,PlotJoined->True]
