Googling for "evaluate clustering"
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=evaluate+clustering

leads to
http://digbib.ubka.uni-karlsruhe.de/volltexte/documents/3149

which seems to be a nice overview paper.

If you miss any information in it, could you specify your question? 
Perhaps I can help better then.

Best,
  Roman
