More than likely the vacuum leak would be at the intake manifold, or a bad vacuum line. You could try and snug up the intake bolts, and look for cracked vacuum lines. Spaying water with a spray bottle along the intake gasket and if the rpm's change, you know there is a leak at the intake manifold gasket.

I had this problem on my 2000 Chrysler Cirrus LXi and I would just change the throttle position sensor.
