Before you rush out an order a new MAF, I suggest checking any vacuum elbows around the intake manifold for cracks/leaks. I use a butane cigarette lighter, no flame, and see if the idle changes when the butane is directed toward a vacuum line or the intake manifold gasket.
Also check the accordian air intake tube directly in front of the throttle body, it has a tendancy to crack with age.
If the vacuum leak is large, you should hear it at idle.
