First, a magnet is used to turn the stirring rod/balls.  The magnet is
typically mounted on a geared motor mounted under the container.

Second, I've thought about stirring with just magnetic fields.  Since
this solution is ionized, a decent magnetic field will cause the flow to
curve.  I don't know if a static field from a permanent magnet would do
a good enough job, haven't looked into it that far.  This might need a
changing field from an electromagnet.

Unless the permanent magnet would work, it seems the old rotating magnet
on a motor version is the way to go.
