MB,

Against a player like this in hand 1, I think you have to approach it like this:

When I flop the ace, I'm making a decision how many bets I want to get in on the big streets before showing down. Simple as that. You're going to get as many bets in as you want against this guy, so just decide what that should be and make it happen.

These guys are tough to play against, and if they happen to pick up a few big hands against you, they'll really have you guessing. If he's shown a pattern of going cap crazy with absolutely nothing, I would've played it like this:

Preflop and flop - the same
Turn - raise, call a 3-bet
River - This is most definitely not my STANDARD LINE, but against THIS OPPONENT, I raise this river and call a 3-bet. This is only if I've seen him going crazy like this prior.

Now, if the stats you have are from AFTER the session and this was 5 hands in, that's a different story. I would just call this river, as TP suggested, against an unknown.
