Is there any way to get access to the data about external figures? I would like
to know the pixel height/width of the actual image.

From one of my private modules:

   \useexternalfigure[cnp:name][\cut!n!paste!parameter\c!name]% Is this really 
needed?
   \getfiguredimensions[cnp:name]%
   \edef\cut!n!paste!NOfpages    {\noffigurepages}%
   % MkII returns dimensions in pt, MkIV returns in sp
   % which causes metapost to blow up. So, I use \dimexpr to convert
   % sp to pt.
   \edef\cut!n!paste!figurewidth {\the\dimexpr\figurenaturalwidth   }%
   \edef\cut!n!paste!figureheight{\the\dimexpr\figurenaturalheight  }%
