I have a bunch. xd I love:
Pika-Pika = shiney or clean. Ex. A brand new car is pika pika. whee
Puni puni = squishy. Ex. Someone's cheeks can be puni puni 3nodding
yuru-yuru = really soft or too soft. (Example from my japanese teacher, moriwaka-sensei) Ex. When your pudding is too soft. xd *She's so cute*
fuwa fuwa = soft. Ex. A pillow >w<
biiku = something shocking/ when you're shocked. Ex. when someone sneeks up behind you
kusu kusu = chuckling or a soft giggle... Like what you do when the teacher has gum stuck to their bottom and you cant laugh too loud cuz you're taking a test. XD Yeah.. bad example sweatdrop

.... Meh.. I'll add more when I think of more. XD

I believe the Japanese call these Gitaigo (or giseigo/giongo).
Some are sound effects, others are used as actualy words or adverbs :3

I like pika pika too. Pika pika da nee!

Other ones I like:
peko peko - stomach growl
poka poka = warmth of the sun
paku paku = opening and closing mouth, eating, gobbling. This is where Pac-man came from!
kunka kunka = sniff sniff (I don't see how. xD)

One of my favorites!
oro oro = shock, surprise, befuddlement, confusion. (You don't usually say it, though, unlike Kenshin.)

Here's a large list of these, if anyone is interested:

OMG! XD I LOVE kusu kusu.. I'm always using it just cuz it's fun.. *adds it to list*
i think it can be used for crying, but I've mostly seen it as a chuckle, kinds like a soft giggle ^^
