First off you dont have a MAF, your accord is a speed density system. So you can scratch that.

Is the check engine light on? Have you dont any modifications lately or anything?

Could be a few different things causing the surging idle your experiencing... most commonly is something like the idle air control valve (IACV) or your exhaust gas recirculatory (EGR) need to be cleaned. Could also be caused by a vaccuum leak someplace.
