Also, you could see the measures used in "Autoregressive Conditional
Heteroskedasticity and Changes in Regime," Journal of Econometrics,
September/October 1994 by James Hamilton.
Note that those measures and the ones suggested by Yaffee below take
care of the fitting of variance instead of prediction as the usual R2.
The latter is usually low and bounded for some specific models (see
Anderson's papers).

Asunto: Re: st: Measure of fit for ARCH model
Beat,
There are many measures that can be used here either in-sample or
out-of-sample. Some are featured in Ser-Huang Poon's "A Practical Guide
to Forecasting financial market volatility" in Chapter 2, including mean
error, mean square error, root mean square error, mean absolute error,
and mean absolute percent error, mean logarithm of absolute error
Theil's U, and a LINEX measure that handles asymmetric loss.
These are very simple to estimate.
