That's exactly what I use it for. I have a small program on my laptop that makes a request of my lambda every now and then (and if it senses a change of the network). It triggers a change in the firewall rules for a SSH server.
Between that and Mosh, I barely even notice when I change networks.
Of course, AWS provides this basic service as checkip.amazonaws.com
