You probably do not want to add users with uids less than 100, they tend to be used for 'system/special' users.

With that in mind (not tested!):

Code:
groupadd -g 2222 bwtusers
uidbase=1000
i=1
while [ $i -le 400 ]
do
  newuid=$(( uidbase + i ))
  newuser="bwt${i}"
  useradd -u ${newuid} -g bwtusers -d /home/${newuser} -m -s /bin/bash ${newuser}
  i+$(( i + 1 ))
done

You'd only need to to the groupadd the once, so if the group exists already you can drop that line.
