There is a method to do that.
It is javax.servlet.ServletRequest.getRemoteAddr()
A word of caution :
This is not reliable for any tracking purpose as more than one user at the
same time may have the same IP address (users behind a firewall..), the IP
address of the user may change as he browses ( I think AOL used to do
that..).
So this piece of information is really not usefull.

PS: If you want to have a look at detailed discussion of why the IP address
of the user is not reliable, you can check the archives of Servlet Interest
list at http://archives.java.sun.com/archives/servlet-interest.html
