Alignment frequency probably has more to do with the type of roads you drive (and curbs and potholes you encounter) than elapsed mileage, but I know having a 4-wheel alignment done on the SVX I bought recently did wonders for that car's disposition.

It is recommended to have an alignment done every year and rotate your tires every other oil change. Sears has a six month warrenty on their alignment, before the end of the sixth month have them re-check it, this way it will be ok for the year.
