First, here's how someone can tell if your IP address is dynamic (sort of): http://mail-abuse.org/dul/ There are other lists of dynamic IP addresses out there, I'm sure. > I don't think tying a domain to my ip will work.

Yes, see above. > Even if I get a domain, unless I can get RR to set up a reverse look up, > the reverse will still resolve to their dynamic name.

Not too long ago, Road Runner went through this odd process of moving all business class IP addresses (I have this level of service) to a new subnet. Perhaps this is because of the DUL, I don't know. But they will not give you a reverse lookup without a static IP (they can't, really), and they won't give you a static IP without a business class account.
