I have been going to the page where he is a random event (coconut shy according to websites) and he is never there. I need him to do the first challenge in defenders II. does anyone know how many times you have to visit that page before he shows up?

Refresh, refresh, refresh. It's more of a random event than a time related thing. Keep refreshing and you'll get him eventually. Learn to love your F5 Button

Yes, but do not love your F5 button too much. Based on their Editorial (Issue 219), TNT does not like it when you refresh too much. Here is what they said:

Some people say that you can get frozen from refreshing to much. For example some avatars people say you can only get from refreshing and they say that you can get frozen from refreshing to much. Is that true? ~ x_tammeh
Just like many things in Neopets and life, there is a line. Let's clarify.
- Hitting refresh repeatedly for a few minutes, allowing the page to load. – Great
- Holding down F5 for 10-30 seconds at a time, checking for the avatar/challenger, then trying again if it has not been achieved – Still good.
- Holding down the F5 key for 20 minutes – Okay, but try to take a break for your mental sake and ours.
- Leaving your "cat" on the F5 key while you make a sandwich. – Not good.
- Leaving your "cat" on the F5 key all night while you sleep – Bad.
- Using a program that refreshes for you at the same rate as a human – Frozen!
- Using Opera to open 100+ pages and hitting "refresh all" – VERY frozen.
Basically, anything that plays the site for you, and requires no effort on your part, is considered a "bot" and will get you frozen. Even your "cat." This includes auto refresher functions in browsers, or putting a weight on F5 to do things the old fashioned way. If you don't do any of that, you don't have to worry.
Of course, things may have changed. They also have mentioned that what they allow may change with time.
