they rely on an external site. :)
1) use dyndns.org client on your linux box and then never have
to worry what your ip is.
2) You could use www.whatismyip.com and grep and sed for the ip.
I guess that site is pretty reliable..
not very elegant, but this should work.
wget www.whatismyip.com -o /dev/null && \
grep 'displaycopy' index.html | \
sed "s/displaycopy('\([0-9]*\.[0-9]*\.[0-9]*\.[0-9]*\).*/\1/"
