I can't help with Python, but the idea should be the same as with C. Home plugins have their class-destroy function called on unload. In C, you would basically do this:
Code:
static void
my_destroy_function(GtkObject *obj)
{
g_source_remove(foo);
}
static void
example_class_init(MyClass *class)
{
/* foo */
GTK_OBJECT_CLASS(class)->destroy = my_destroy_function;
/* bar */
}

ok... thanks. IIRC I saw something similar for python somewhere. I'll go find it.

Code:
...
self.timer = gobject.timeout_add(delay, self.update)
self.connect ("unrealize", self.unrealize)

def unrealize(self, widget):
if self.timer:
gobject.source_remove(self.timer)

Great! That should do it! 
I'll test it tomorrow.
