Apps Does uninstalling an app leave things behind?

I did a quick forum/google search and could not find much info, but I was wondering if constantly installing and uninstalling apps had any negative effect on the phone (such as leaving random registry things, data, etc. behind).

Would you guys recommend a factory reset every so often to clean things up?
