... well, that wouldn't keep me from trying something along the lines of

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport $MYPORT -m state --state NEW -j REJECT
iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport $MYPORT -m state --state NEW -j REJECT

Note, however, that this interprets your term "new client" so as to 
include clients that *were* connected seconds ago, but choose to 
*re*connect for whatever reason.
