LSE Professor Satoshi Kanazawa has a study on it:

I would say its the other way around - intelligent people are more likely to be atheists.
With the majority of world being theists and preaching one or the other form theism, being an atheist (for rational reasons) requires study and critical analysis of the presented theistic arguments. Intelligence is quite helpful in that endeavor.
