I just had the same issue. My Duralast battery was bad. It was just replaced a few months ago, so I ruled it out. It was under warranty so they gave me a free one.
If you have any aftermarket audio amplifiers installed, temporarily disconnect the battery cable going to them, just to rule that part out.

I checked the amp this morning. Pulled the fuse and drove around and its still doing it. It only does it at a light when I am stopped. I was thinking the idle was set to low cause when I rev it a little it comes up of course. I really dont know getting a little frustrating. Freaking went to Auto Zone again and they tried to sell me a IAC. WTF that has nothing to do with the charging system. Looks like im gonna be crawlin around under the car this weekend.

i had an alt go out, replaced it and it went out within a week, would not charge at idle, but would start charging when i gave it gas. Till it gave out a few weeks later. got a new one from AZ under warranty and have not had an issue.
