The place that the rear der. threads into is called the der. hanger. If you have an alu. frame with a replaceable one chances are you can get another one. If is is a steel frame take it to a LBS and have them fix it. If it is a Ti. frame take it to your LBS.

Are you sure it is stripped? The nut inside of the frame will spin making it feel like it's stripped. It can be held from the back side with a large screwdriver. Just a thought.
