if you choose #3 - get_string_property("token map") - keep in mind that the IPs returned from this call are the IPs used for "ListenAddress" param in storage-conf.xml. In my case we have two NICs and I set this to be an IP that is only for "node to node" communication. The "ThriftAddress" param is the one i really want. maybe this has been changed, "fixed" ;), haven't tested in a while.

How can I accomplish this?

The way I'm doing it now it is creating a TSocket connection using a
static IP of one of the boxes on Cassandra:
       TTransport tr = new TSocket(host, port.intValue());
       TProtocol proto = new TBinaryProtocol(tr);
       Cassandra.Client client = new Cassandra.Client(proto);
       tr.open();

With a larger cluster I would imagine there is another preferred
solution with no single point of failure (e.g. that one box  goes
down).
