This is a wild guess because I don't have the code but the effect is as if you were calculating the visible map's corner's coordinates (for example using the Bounding Box around Tiles fromulas from the wiki page) and then interpolating lat and lon to place the markers. Instead you need to project the coordinates of each marker to 900913 (i.e. lat2y) and then display.
