Those words have one meaning each.
A microservice is a service that does only one thing, and does it simply.
Something stateless doesn't keep state - after an interaction with a client, nothing has changed in the service itself.
A stateless authentication microservice is something I would expect to run, listen on a port for some sort of authentication credentials, and return either some sort of authorizarion token or an authentication error.

I don't see where the confusion comes from.
