The ImageMap extension isn't coded to use external links. Only internal ones. If you want to do something like that you'll half to request that as a new feature and have someone code it into the extension.

I have installed the ImageMap extension (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ImageMap) and set $wgImageMapAllowExternalLinks = true
With the following markup
<imagemap> Image:mylogo.jpg rect 0 0 120 60 [[Help]] </imagemap>
It works fine but fails when I use an external link:
<imagemap> Image:mylogo.jpg rect 0 0 120 60 [http://www.mylink.com] </imagemap>
with error <imagemap>: no valid link was found at the end of line 3
Any ideas?
In the mean time (while waiting for an external link-feature) you can perhaps link to a "link-page", that is, a page which contains the external link? Sort of a "external redirect", but one which takes user interaction in order to actually click the extra link in order to get redirected to the http:// adress.
