Firstly have you considered using Lingon to maintain your plist? That  
could help you.

The most obvious thing that stands out is that you aren't supplying a  
config file argument to stunnel. How's it going to locate your config  
file?

You might want to check your system.log file using the Console  
application and watch for messages.

You also need to use launchctl to load your plist - Lingon makes this  
pretty straightforward.
