Something along these lines should work, not tested for syntax errors though
function random_post() {
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'orderby' => 'rand',
'posts_per_page' => 1,
);
$post = query_posts( $args );
}
if(!$post->post_excerpt){
random_post();
}
// Then down here you would do whatever with the $post object
