Pop the joint off (we all know how easy it is) and put a coat of glue on the ball. leave to dry for 15-30 mins. You'll know when it's dry cos it'll be hard and not sticky when you touch it. If it's not dry just leave it longer. Pop joint back on. If it's not stiff enough, repeat process.

I use this method. I use super glue so I usually let the glue cure for 24 hours(it's really because I'll forget about it for a day, hehe).
I advise a "less is more" approach because you may be tempted to really load up on glue for a really loose joint and end up with making the ball too large to fit in the socket properly. A single thin layer of super glue has served me well so far, even on significantly loose ball joints. It's easier to add glue than to take it away when cured/dried.
