There is no way (currently) to access the markers in a KmlLayer,
except by clicking on them.

The only solution I know of is to import your kml into FusionTables,
then use a Gviz query to open the markers (or search the values).

Some examples I have been playing with:

Add a random "cache-busting" parameter or a date stamp to the URL (or
if you update it infrequently a version number).
