1) Ask the ISP - but unless you've got a court order, chances are they won't tell you 2) Google the address (try just the username part as well as with domain name) and see if they've revealed their identity on discussion boards, newsgroup threads etc Like I say, both fairly slim chances tbh.

If you do that, report the address to the ISP and get them booted. Or better still, tell the filth.
