if you asked the elder people, you may say 您老高寿?
but if you are talking to the kids , just saying:你多大了?
Sometimes we may make jokes with friends or persons we are familiar,
To some extent, we may say :您贵庚是?

Just to clarify, "你几岁, Ni ji sui?" is informal and most appropriate for younger people, right?
A formal way to ask (good for older people) is "您今年多大岁数, Nin jinnian duo da suishu?" This phrase means something like "What is your age this year?"
