looking to do is have the IAX connection re-register every hour or so.
Is this the right idea?
    

Why not get a static IP?

If that is not available, some routers have a capabilities to update
your DNS setting and send you an email.
Nest, you can scan your email for an IP from certain provider if it
doesn't match lunch/execute a script that will reload asterisk.  
I've never done it but I know it is possible to do it.
Better yet.  There are client programs out there which can read your ip off many routers.  I've used ddclient specifically.  You could hack that to reregister your IAX when the IP changes.  (Although a static IP would come in mighty handy.)
