You might be able to use the CL function gensym to define a function that does what you want; see

http://clhs.lisp.se/Body/f_gensym.htm

Alternatively:

(%i7) load(to_poly)$

(%i8) new_variable('real);
(%o8) %r510

(%i9) new_variable('complex);
(%o9) %c511

(%i10)          featurep(%,'complex);
(%o10) true

(%i11) new_variable('integer);
(%o11)          %z512

(%i12)          featurep(%,integer);
(%o12) true
