Random Screening At The Gate?

I will be transiting DFW in Jan. on my way to MCI and while I understand DFW is very good about NOT needing to pass thru security again as a thru connecting pax I am concerned about this random gate screening I have read about.
1. Is this a common occurrance or is it rare?
2. If a person should decline gateside random screening will they be allowed to leave or are they subject to arrest and/or fine?
I figure DFW is about 8hr from MCI so if selected I believe I would leave and drive if allowed to do so without legal issues. I also have relatives in DFW so stayin there overnite would not be an inconvenience.
I look forward to advice board members can give regards this issue.
