[We] followed LNAV guidance for stadium visual to Runway 29 using RNAV info. [We] flew over SLIMR at 1;500 FT in landing configuration and turning with descent on final to cross CHUMR at 500 FT. Descent to 500 FT was slightly higher rate than thought and Tower informed us they got a low altitude alert on us. We leveled off at 500 FT just shy of CHUMR; crossed CHUMR; normal landing.
B737 Captain reports getting low prior to CHUMR during the Stadium Visual Approach Runway 29 to EWR. EWR Tower issues a low altitude alert. A normal landing ensues.
