Perform the following:

1. register at freedns.afraid.org
2. choose a domain from the registry[1] and create your subdomain (e.g. 
myTor.mooo.com)
2. either configure your router to update your IP or download one of the 
available clients: http://freedns.afraid.org/scripts/freedns.clients.php
3. in your torrc, configure:
    Address myTor.mooo.com
4. service tor restart

And your relay will automatically resolve your domain (myTor.mooo.com) 
to your dynamic IP.
