If you know its density, you could just weigh it. Otherwise, you could use a 3-D digitizing device to digitize its outline. I've seen them in the past, but will have to do a quick search to see if I can find one. It's like a wand mounted on...

Break the object into parts that a block or a cylinder has. For example, if you are finding the volume of a doughnut, you will measure the surface of it and subtract the measurements of the hole.
