with the lever and skewer bit gone it should be plenty loose enough (don't ride it if this is the case!) to put an appropriately sized ring spaner in the space where the lever was, and then use the 'arm' of the spanner in the slot to unscrew the maxle. I think you can get just the lever, skewer and cone bits as spares rather than shell out for a whole new one.
