Value is in minutes, so;
1 day = 1440 (default setting)
1 week = 10080
1 month = 44640

Off course you can use your own value, these are just examples ;)

From good old wiki
You may want to disable the
automatic software updates checks
that occur upon internet connection,
in order to consume less bandwidth
when using 2G/3G connections. You
can do so by editing the gconf file
found in /var/lib/gconf/apps/hildon/
update-notifier and changing the
check interval from 1440(24 hours) to
a much larger value. The value must
not exceed 2,147,483,647:
gconftool -s --type int /apps/hildon/
update-notifier/check_interval NEW_
VALUE

Very strange...this trick doesn't help me at all. Application manager checks updates very often.

Ye, I know. Today application manager has downloaded more then 9Mb via 3G while checking for updates (I didn't start it).
