if you subclass movieclip then you have access to the onLoad method.
Just overload that and put your dispatch in there
public function onLoad():Void
{
dispatchEvent({type:'onload', target:this});
}

A little late in the (reply) game, but you could try:
MovieClip.prototype.onConstruct = function()
{
trace("created")
}
This will be called anytime a new clip is created. You could, however, weed out
the unwanted dispatching of events, by dispatching based upon the name of the
clip created, i.e.:
MovieClip.prototype.onConstruct = function()
{
if(this._name == "myMC"){
trace("created")
}
}
Hope that helps.

Subject: [Flashcoders] dispatching events at creation time?
------------------
class tryOut {
public var addEventListener:Function;
public var removeEventListener:Function;
private var dispatchEvent:Function;
function tryOut() {
mx.events.EventDispatcher.initialize(this);
trace("I am Here 1");
dispatchEvent({type:"created", target:this});
}
public function callMe():Void {
dispatchEvent({type:"created", target:this});
}
}
------------------
when I instantiate this class everything works except the dispatchEvent
in the constructor of the class. Why and how can I do to force an object
to call me back when he is created?
