Just slap some molding clay around the mini, making two halves for easy
separation.  Recombine the halves, fill with water.  Pour the water into
a
measuring cup and whola, a simple approximation of the objects volume. 
I
have used this before to do just what you are looking for.  I like the
mini's size to at least somewhat represent the actual ship scale size
along
with other ships, as well as help measure for design considerations.
