Can I change how often Clippy appears?

Yes. By default, Clippy appears every 60 seconds. You can change this by passing a number as a command-line argument. For example, clippy.exe 20 will make Clippy appear every 20 seconds. Shorter intervals are more annoying -- and therefore more effective as a prank.
