Recently I'm seeing a spate of spam registrations appearing. I think they are coming in from www.mysite.com\index.php?option=com_user&view=register

What I want is for customers to register only through HikaShop and to block the way through the standard Joomla registration form. So my question though not exactly a HikaShop issue is: if I turn off registration in the Joomla global config, will my customers still be able to register thru HikaShop?

They won't unless you change the "regsitration" option to "no regsitration" in the configuration of HikaShop. In that case, no user account will be created during the hikashop checkout and the user data will be saved as "guest".

If you use the Recaptcha plugin of HikaShop, it might help reduce spam for joomla registration form as well as Hikashop's:
