I agree with Odds to tell the truth. Depends on whether the man is used to it or not.
Moreover, people who are not used to too much affection, might be more clingy than usual

Also, i never contact him two days in a row, if he contacts me I respond but I won't contact him until at least a day after the last time I did.

 I would day contact him about half the time, and wait for him to contact you the other half.

 It varies widely depending on the guy. Rule of thumb is that the more comfortable he is with physical contact (kissing, cuddling, sex), and the more naturally at ease he seems to be with it, the quicker he will call you clingy. Guys who have not experienced enough such contact to grow at ease with it tend to welcome constant contact; guys who have dated before and are not desperate for physical affection will tend to be wary of clinginess.
When you call him, text him, or are hanging out with him, judge the enthusiasm of his reactions to you advances, and adjust accordingly. As long as you don't ignore his signals, you'll be fine.

I think it depends on the guy. Tell me how you are towards someone and i can tell if if thats clingy or not, in my opinion of course.
