The distribution, n(k,t), of the interval sizes, k, between clusters of persistent sites in the dynamical evolution of the one-dimensional q-state Potts model is studied using a combination of numerical simulations, scaling arguments, and exact analysis. It is shown to have the scaling form n(k,t) = t^{-2z} f(k/t^z), with z= max(1/2,theta), where theta(q) is the persistence exponent which characterizes the fraction of sites which have not changed their state up to time t. When theta > 1/2, the scaling length, t^theta, for the interval-size distribution is larger than the coarsening length scale, t^{1/2}, that characterizes spatial correlations of the Potts variables.
