I had this problem with Xcode after installing Lion

MAS Update Bug
1. Quit the Mac App Store
2. Trash the following folders and files; (~ is your Home folder)

     ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.storeagent
     ~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
     ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
