Not sure if this helps, but:

user => (eval (symbol "Math" "PI”))
3.141592653589793

user =>  (eval `(. ~(resolve (symbol "String")) ~(symbol "format") "%s" 
(to-array ["adasd"])))
“adasd"

Maybe a macro of some sort?

(defmacro invoke-static
  [c meth & args]
  `(. ~(resolve (symbol c)) ~(symbol meth) ~@args))

user => (invoke-static "java.lang.String" "format" "the %s" (to-array ["foo"]))
“the foo"

user=> (invoke-static "System" "currentTimeMillis")
1432170076378

That kind of thing?
