For example, you can count the number of particles emitted by a radioactive substance. See the "Physical Methods" section of the wikipedia entry on random number generators, link below.

The only way to generate true random numbers is in hardware. And there is debate over whether that can generate true random numbers either. One way it is done is to let an input to a gate "float" without tying it to either ground or +Vcc. Natural noise then causes it to randomly oscillate between 0 and 1. Not in software only.
