By the time the page loads, the IP address probably isn't visible yet. I would simply set the value in the getIP function instead:

function getIP(json) {
    ipa = json.ip;
    document.getElementById('00Nc0000003r0ly').value = ipa;
}

Look into using an Apex Controller and the following statement.

String ipAddress = ApexPages.currentPage().getHeaders().get('True-Client-IP');

Here is a link to a simple example that uses the above code. It will get you what you are looking for.
