Sep 15, 2014 at 19:44 comment added Igor Rivin @CarloBeenakker I was not aware of that, but there is still a couple percent difference between the Wigner surmise and the limit distribution, so that if you have reasonably large samples from both, they will look different enough for, say Kolmogorov-Smirnov to be sure that the distributions are different. But maybe that's no longer true for, say $10000x10000$ matrices?!
Sep 15, 2014 at 18:43 comment added Carlo Beenakker not sure if this is what you're asking, but the "Wigner surmise" for the spacing distribution is derived for a 2x2 matrix and is almost indistinguishable from the large-N limit.
