On final for runway; fully configured for landing; at approximately 800 FT to 900 FT; the aircraft warning for windshear called for a go-around. It was day VFR with no clouds and a wind condition of nine knots. I asked Tower for a wind report and they called wind on the surface at 4 KTS. There was no associated turbulence and we had smooth conditions. I told the First Officer to continue for landing. [We] landed uneventfully with no change in wind conditions. I asked Maintenance about the situation and they claimed it was occurring regularly at STL.
A B737-300 Windshear Warning alerted at about 800 FT on final to STL in clear; calm weather conditions so the crew continued for a normal landing.
