There are a number of ways to approach this. One simple way to add a secondary axis would be to use a Frame and an approriate FrameTicks directive. For example,
Plot[{x, x^2}, {x, 0, 2}, PlotStyle -> {Black, Red},
Axes -> None, Frame ->True,
FrameTicks -> {Automatic, Automatic, None,
Table[{n^2, n}, {n, 0.5, 4, 0.5}]},
FrameLabel -> {"x", "y", None, "Sqrt[y]"}];
Using the DrawGraphics package David Parks wrote allows for more flexibility and more complex graphics.
