Your main concern about AlienBBC is not memory but processor
speed/power.  The following are general points about ARM based NAS. 

AlienBBC requires mplayer to decode RealAudio. 

You need to make sure that there is a build of mplayer available for
the QNAP you intend to use.

If the processor speed of QNAP is limited  you may have to play
RealAudio streams as WAV and not be able to transcode them into Flac or
MP3. If you are using wireless, this can be a concern as it will require
good quality wireless connections.

The processor power may also limit the number of SB that can be playing
RealAudio at the same time and/or the number of synced players.

You should check these points with users of the specific model of QNAP
you intend to buy.
