Maybe I'm missing the point of the question, but can't you just do it 
exactly the same way?

   Reader reader = new FileReader("clj/demo.clj");
   Compiler.load(reader);
   Var var = RT.var("demo", "even_sillier_adder");

   Object result = var.invoke(4);
   System.out.println("Result: " + result);
   System.out.println("Result evaluated: " + Compiler.eval(result));

Output:

   Result: (foo/silly_adder 9)
   Result evaluated: 9

A macro is just a function that takes some code and returns some other 
code, so "invoking" a macro will return the code it evaluates to.  If 
you want that to be then evaluated, then just ask the compiler to 
evaluate it. ;-)
