My car used to do the same thing for a while...

I *THINK* when I went through a period where the car did this, it was
right after I cleaned the throttle body.  Wouldn't hurt to clean the
throttle body, check plugs/wires, fuel filter, air filter, TPS voltage,
and anything else anyone else would like to tack onto that list.  I don't
think I ever tracked down a culprit - it just went away.  I wasn't at idle
enough to the point that it got all that annoying or affected my gas
mileage much.  I wouldn't worry too much about it
