I have this friend that is more like a sister to me and I want to tell her how much she means to me. I don't know what I should say without it coming out all stupid. She's been there for me more than anyone and she just really gets me. I just want her to know I'm always going to be there for her. Is there anything I should do or say to get the point across?

There are a number of ways you could go. Sometimes just saying it is the best (followed with a hug).
Otherwise if you want to make it a little more special think of a nice present with a card that says what you want to say.
I once made up a plaque that said "World's Greatest Parents" plus a list of the things I appreciated about them. They were very moved. It was a good way to openly acknowledge how I felt and we have all been able to say it a lot more since.

Sorry bout your luck.
If she's that special open your heart in a private enviornment. Sometimes getting it off your chest is the best way. The hard part is it could cause embarrassment and change the way she think's of you. Start off by telling her that. You don't want her to be embassassed and would hate to lose her as a friend forever. But you feel she needs to know exactlly how you feel you you can both be on the same page. Understanding how you feel can strenght'in your realashonship. OR ruin it. So .... let her know you need to get something off your chest but don't want to ruin what you already have. You want to see if you can make everything better, or see how she feel's. Honesty is the best policy. Everyone apreciates a honest person.

I think Ozbookgirl has the right idea: write it down. Whether it's a letter, a card, or something more permanent; you at least get to think out exactly what you want to say "without it coming out all stupid". Also, it is a permanent reminder to her of just how much you appreciate her.
If you really mean it, put it in writing.

Just be honest and just come out with it. Probably at first just think of how great she is and how you will always be there for her and be her friend, and just come out with it. Don't be scared, or embarrassed, just tell her how much she means to you as a friend. Go for it.

My friends are more like family to me than my own sister is to me as well. I have 5 very close friends...how I told them they are more like a sister to me than a friend, is I told the " I feel very close to you, like i've known you forever, I feel I can talk to you about anything and anything, & your more of a sister to me than my own sister is" Their response was....I too think of you as my sister. Now we are closer than ever! If you can't tell your friend in person, go to hallmark & get a card, and tell her how you feel , don't hurt to do it! Good luck!

Tell her that she is like your sister. Tell her that you'll be there for her. Do it to her face and look her in the eyes when you say it, unflinching. Just Tell her straight on. She has to get the point if you do that.

Well do not tell her instead do the things that supports this feelings 4 her. I think Practical things are more valuable than the words.
