You could create a simple AutoIt Script that does the job for you, compile it as an executable and perform a system call there.

in au3 Script:

; how to use: MouseClick ( "button" [, x, y [, clicks = 1 [, speed = 10]]] )
MouseClick ( "left" , $CmdLine[1], $CmdLine[1] )

Now find aut2exe in your au3 Folder or find 'Compile Script to .exe' in your Start Menu and create an executable.

in your Java class call:

Runtime.getRuntime().exec(
    new String[]{
        "yourscript.exe", 
        String.valueOf(mypoint.x),
        String.valueOf(mypoint.y)}
);

AutoIt will behave as if it was a human and won't be detected as a machine.
