There should not be noticeable looseness or clunking when you push and pull the power steering pump pulley in and out.
A very slight amount of movement may be present internally, but if you can clearly see or feel the pulley/shaft moving back and forth, particularly if it clicks or clunks, I would consider the pump worn.
