Just a quick question on how would I create an extra property for an object similar to a handle but one i can write to and to be alphanumeric. I don't want the user to see it or change it unless through a script. Currently i am using the object's but doesn't give me a unique value. Thanks in advance.

Take a look at scripted custom attributes in the reference. If its a numerical value and you want it to remain hidden from the end user, specify animatable as false when defining the parameters.
