if you check for example: http://posterous.com/explore
You can see all pretty unique titles without a number appended and then a post titled "Tetris" gets "/tetris-194"
Even if you post something without a title it just gets an ID assigned which is (this is a guess tho) the unique ID in their database of all blogs.

This is changing soon! It's on our roadmap.
