UPDATE:

I've done a test using NetBeans 7.0.1. The results were this:

Declare a method that receives a String[] parameter:

@WebMethod(operationName = "helloArray")
public String helloArray(@WebParam(name = "name") String[] name) {
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("Hello ");
    if (name != null) {
        for(int i = 0; i < name.length; i++) {
            sb.append(name[i]);
            if (i < (name.length - 1)) {
                sb.append(" and ");
            }
        }
    }
    sb.append('!');
    return sb.toString();
}

The WSDL generated a complex type for my method with a String array element

In the client, the IDE generated a List to consume it:

@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType(name = "helloArray", propOrder = {"name"})
public class HelloArray {

    @XmlElement(nillable = true)
    protected List name;

    public List getName() {
        if (name == null) {
            name = new ArrayList();
        }
        return this.name;
    }
}

And a method to consume the service

private String helloArray(java.util.List name) {
    edu.home.wsclient.HelloWorldWS port = service.getHelloWorldWSPort();
    return port.helloArray(name);
}
