Pound a socket onto it that is a bit too small and remove it that way.

i think sears carries a socket that can still work with stripped nuts.

easy outs and drill or you can buy some other tools made exactly for the purpose of removing rounded bolt heads or broken bolts. I bought some of them from heighbor freight and does the trick everytime I run into messed up bolts.
