Evap leak fault cleared on its own???

My 2007 Sportcombi gets weekend use primarily. 6 month ago an evaporative system fault generated a check engine light (I own a Tech2). I replaced my gas cap and cleared the fault. Around 2 months ago the fault returned. When I clear it it takes 3-4 drives before the fault returns UNTIL this weekend. I made a 400 mile round trip. I stopped for gas about 160 miles into the drive and on restart the check engine light was not illuminated on the dash. There have been several restarts since then through the completion of the trip. The check engine light has not come back on.
I don't know the details of how the evap system works. Should I worry that some component is failing or could this simply be from lack of use since it can sit 1 to occasionally two weeks without being driven?
Thanks in advance for shedding some light on this for me.
