Practice!  I started hacking in my freshmen year in high school and, at the time, my record was 2 hits.  There really is no specific area of the foot you need to hit the hacky sack.  If you are wearing sneakers aim for the arch on the inside of your foot.  That keeps it pretty level.  Once you start controlling it you can make up different ways to hit it (with your head, shoulder, knee, ect.).  Just keep counting how many times you hit it.  Last time I counted I was going on 130 hits and stopped because it got boring.  With practice you'll get better.
