The simplest way is specify disk instead of tmpfs.
For example,
# mount -o ro /dev/sda1 /ro
# mount /dev/sda2 /rw
# mount -t aufs -o br:/rw:/ro none /u
then all changes go to /rw.

If your RW(tmpfs) is accessible directly (bypassing aufs), then you can
copy the files to anywhere you like. For such case, there is a script
called aubrsync in aufs2-util.git tree.
