I remember having the same frustrations some time ago. Not that they are gone now. :) It obviously depends on the tool, and these code analysis you describe you get only in IDEs. I don't know what tool you are using now, but you have them all described in the Getting Started page (http:// dev.clojure.org/display/doc/Getting+Started).
My experience is only with vim + slimv (http://www.vim.org/scripts/ script.php?script_id=2531) + swank-clojure (https://github.com/ technomancy/swank-clojure), and I can tell you it's far from what you are looking for. Emacs + slime + swank-clojure is probably better, but not by much. I would recommend Intellij + La Clojure (without actually having tried it myself), and that's because of the emphasis of Intellij on these analysis tools. La Clojure seems to be supported by JetBrains, and that gives it a big potential. However it seems that in the lisp world, code analysis tools are that wanted. We have Common Lisp for quite some time now, and people seem quite happy with slime.
