The example you provided only declares the actions. In order to use them you have to use them in you pipelines using the <map:act> or using the cocoon-action request parameter (check the action user docs).
Also, examin your generated sitemap java file sitemap_xmap.java probably in your appservers WEB-INF/work directory. Returning null from an action means that that action failed, you might want to return an empty Map instead.
