the point of pkgsrc is not for pkg_add but for building the packages from 
source. e.g.
cd /usr/pkgsrc/games/xworm
make && make install
make clean

i've often found pre-compiled binary packages somewhat incompatible for one 
reason or another so this convenient way of building from source (all relevant 
NetBSD patches are applied for you at compile time) is a wonderful way of 
adding packages.

something else that may be worth adding to a weekly cronjob might be a make 
clean at the bottom of the pkgsrc tree. i've been caught out once or twice 
having a dirty build tree.

e.g.
potomac# crontab -l
... stuff snipped...
00 1 * * 1 /usr/sbin/sup -s
00 1 * * 2 cd /usr/pkgsrc && make clean

monday morning at 1am sup is run. tues morning at 1am pkgsrc tree is cleaned. 
for crontab table structure see crontab(5).
