Run the command as usual
M-x align-regexp RET
Let Emacs tell you what the lisp representation of it is. Do
M-x list-command-history RET
you will find your very recent command there.
Copy, paste that stuff, do some modifications for the region portion and
your are done.
----------------------------------------------------------------
You can also get the lisp representation with
M-x repeat-complex-command RET
M-p
M-p
etc
until you find what you want.
