IP address is not a unique feature, MAC address is. But internet uses IP addresses for communication it means that when whoever toke your laptop connects to internet you will not able so see the MAC. The only chance you have is security service which is a part of BIOS (not all laptops have it). It you have it enabled you have a chance to get it back. If you do not have it, you do not have chances to find it. You would try to notify the manufacture (Dell, IBM... the one you have). If somebody tries to register it for warranty, they can get them.
