My ipad was stolen and I have put an 'erase when connected on the internet' but since people have been trying to hack into my email account since this has happened, is there anything that I can do to protect my data?

Here is Apple’s advice for lost or stolen devices:
If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is lost or stolen – Apple Support
Use the Find My app to locate a lost or stolen device – Apple Support
If the Find My iPad feature was enabled prior to it being “misplaced”, then if active, you would stand a good chance of locating it.
However, if the feature was not activated prior to being misplaced - or the iPad has been inactive for more than 24 hours, the last known location will not be available - and the opportunity to use technical means to recover the iPad have been lost.
As for the security of your email account, ensure that you have set a strong password. If you have any reason to suspect that your email (or other accounts) have been compromised, change the password immediately.
