Using Mark Murphy's online books, he describes how to do this. I don't know if it is the only way, but basically you extend ItemizedOverlay<OverlayItem>, in the constructor you do the items.add(OverlyaItem) method call. This will add overlayitem's to the map. These items are clickable and you can implement the click handler in the OverlayItem extending class that you provide/add.
I recommend his books. He responds here a lot and has his own forum and weekly chats as well. Well worth $40.
