We introduce a Monte Carlo approach for estimating isolated polynomial zeros through their contour integral representations. For a simple zero enclosed by an isolating contour, we show that the zero can be expressed exactly as the expectation of a complex-valued random variable obtained by uniformly sampling the contour. This yields an unbiased estimator without perturbing the polynomial coefficients. We establish its variance and derive finite sample probabilistic error bounds based on concentration inequalities, with the bounds explicitly reflecting the geometry of the contour and its separation from the zeros. The framework also provides a stochastic formulation of contour based root counting and root isolation. Numerical results illustrate the estimator's behavior under varying polynomial degrees, and we further provide comparisons to existing methods.
