Generates random time periods (in milliseconds) between a max and min around the given minutes value. For example this can be used to ensure 5 minute poll requests across multiple clients don't all happen at once.
$ npm install --save jitter-time
var jitterTime = require('jitter-time')
var POLL_INTERVAL = jitterTime(5, 0.2)
//=> 290110 (Random number between 240000 and 360000)
setInterval(syncDataWithServer, POLL_INTERVAL)
