Well, and this may vary from state to state, but only the first three charges could get any significant jail time. Maybe for the child porn, but unlikely; it depends on the circumstances. Failure to appear in court may be a month at best, if any. But the rape, and the assault and battery, that could easily lead to 10 years on a full conviction(i.e. found guilty, no plea bargaining). Rape should get about the same punishment in any state, if memory serves, and when you add all the other charges, especially the assault and battery, this could really add up even in more lax states. Now, this all depends on how the prosection takes this, and how related the charges all. If they're all in one trial, this dude's pretty much screwed. But if they aren't related enough to warrant only one trial, he may have several different trials, some of which he may win or lose. It all comes down to how solid the case is, and how good the lawyers on both sides. But as for a base number if convicted on all charges? 5 minimum, 10 expected, 15 max, though I don't know of a state with penalties that great.
