Try this:
<cfset num= "16,511.00" >
<!--- remove anything not a number or decimal point --->
<cfset num = REReplace(num, "[^0-9.]", "", "ALL" )>
#round(num)#

There is an oreilly book Mastering Regular Expressions which has
everything++
One gotcha is that CF is a little different in its syntax for somethings .
Hope that helps ..
