In zsh, I have alt+. bound to insert-last-word
When I am listing through the last command parameters by repeatedly pressing alt+., sometimes I press one too many and I need to go one back.
What keybinding is used to go back?

You can just undo, bound to Ctrl+_ in emacs mode by default (note that insert-last-word is also bound to Alt+_).
After undoing though, if you invoke insert-last-word again, you'll be back to the beginning, you can't just alternate pressing Ctrl+_ and Alt+_ to go back and forth in the history.
For that, you'd need to define a separate widget that invokes the insert-last-word widget with 1 as argument (see info zsh insert-last-word for details).
For instance, bound to Alt+,:
insert-last-word-forward() zle insert-last-word 1
zle -N insert-last-word-forward
bindkey 'e,' insert-last-word-forward
