This is application/context dependent. Ebay users may have a wait time of 2-20 seconds, where the low end results from scanning a page and dismissing it out of hand and the high end is the result of an auction with a REALLY long/detailed/funny description. Other web applications may have incredibly complex pages that result in a user parking on that page for 60-6000 seconds.
What I suggest is that you convene a group of representative users (could be internal analysts and/or QA members) and record their use sessions. A little statstical analysis on the wait times should provide you with enough data to confidently randomize wait times.

Hi all,
I've to make some load tests on my app.
Our customer wants the appli to handle "300 simultaneous users". To translate this requirement into request per second,
how many time do you consider an 'active web user' to wait between 2 request ?
Nico.
