Ah, that old chestnut! Most people will be somewhat relieved to know that the Horror stories about how the average human swallows a varying number of Spiders every year whilst sleeping (the number given varies from teller to teller) seems to be an urban legend fuelled by many people's fear of spiders and insects.
Although it probably does happen occasionally, it's certainly not as common as some people fear and the vast majority of people probably go through life without swallowing any insects or spiders during sleep.

The second it reaches your throat you would have to take a swallow and let it go down.. All in all, it just doesn't happen.
