I use ports rather than packages, so a combination of a cron for portsnap to update the portstree (at some silly time so I wont accidentally update ports while portsnap is doing stuff to the ports tree, see the manpage.) and "portmaster -L | grep New" I dont cron it but you could easily enough, (portmaster is ports-mgmt/portmaster , you could use the tools from ports-mgmt/portupgrade of you prefer.) Oh and I'd suggest freebsd-questions as a better list for this kind of query.
