I always take the obvious approach, Stallion. Thread.sleep(timeToSleep). If webMethods has a built-in “stall” feature, I haven’t found it.
You could probably rig the backoff feature of the REPEAT Flow step, depending on your situation, but invoking a Java service to sleep seems to be cleaner.
Be sure to properly catch your exceptions.
