Like Bainternet said in comments, you’ll need to mess with add_query_var as well as add_rewrite_rule.
We usually do something similar to:
global $wp;
$wp->add_query_var( 'some_var' );
add_rewrite_rule( 'some/path/([^/]+)/?$', 'index.php?some_var=$matches[1]' );
See this WordPress Trac ticket, as well as documentation on add_query_var and add_rewrite_rule
