What is size of nut holding the front rotor on a 96 pontaic grand am?

The nut is not holding the rotor on. It is holding the CV shaft into the bearing hub assembly. The rotor is only held on by the caliper and lug nuts when you have the wheel on. Remove the wheel and the caliper. The caliper bolts are probably 3/8" hex bolts. If the brakes have never been changed, there may be a small metal retainer around one of the lug studs, but being a 96 model they have probably been changed and the retainer is no longer there. It isn't necessary to put another retainer on, that is only to hold the rotor in place as it goes down the assembly line in the factory.
