The stress tool in 2.1 also now supports clustering columns: http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/improved-cassandra-2-1-stress-tool-benchmark-any-schema
There are however some features up for revision before release in order to help generate realistic workloads. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7519 for details.
