I used to do it every day like that.  Lately I've reduced the frequency to 3 or 4 days which seems to work pretty well.  Actually, since I've reduced the frequency, it seems like I've encountered far fewer broken builds.

It's a probability game.  More syncs and updates means more ebuilds built and more chances for things to go wrong.  Plus, you end up building every little revision that comes out, which is wasteful.
