Tensioner pulley..how much play??

How much play is allowed for the tensioner pulley? When I take the tension off the belt, the pulley wiggles a bit, not much, but it does wiggle. Should there be none? I have a ticking/rattling sound that is coming from the front of the engine and it is driving me crazy.
