Depends on the vehicle, some early ones had starter issues. Most modern vehicles with auto start stop have an oversized starter to help reduce the chance of failure. There is no particular reason why it would case excessive engine ware that I can think of, it wouldn't be any different that a delivery driver that turns off the engine and starts the truck again after making the drop a few hundred times a day, or hybrids which start and stop the engine all the time as the system needs.
