The VoIP wiki has a page[1] dedicated to Asterisk monitoring, including links to a couple of Perl scripts that will do an IAX "POKE" to see if the provider is responding, and allow you to measure the latency as well. I've also heard that one of the Asterisk developers is working on a command-line tool (probably in compiled C) to do similar things as well. You might also want to check the iaxclient community and see if they have anything written that could help you.
