Well, you could try to figure out what IP address your router is giving it, but presumably you have some sort of dynamic DNS setup so that www.llamaserver.net will work. Why not just ssh llamaserver.net? You would have to tell your router to forward the ssh port (22) just as you do the http port (80). That has the advantage that you could do it from work too if necessary (and if they allow it), or from a cybercafe.

If you are worried about opening up your machine to ssh from the whole internet then you could set firewall rules on the router or on the box itself to only allow in certain IP ranges, like the range from your ISP and the range from your workplace.

I'm making educated guesses here about your setup, but you did ask for advice.
