Currently there's no explicit COM API supported by the mapserver project. However I'm planning to create a proposal for supporting this this kind of interface in the near future. I can think about 2 potential (easily manageable) solutions to achieve this functionality.
1. Creating a COM Callable Wrapper (CCW) around the mapscript C# API 2. Creating a SWIG generated ATL COM interface for the project. I would favour the latter to accomplish this task. Since the SWIG project does not support creating a COM API directly I'm on the way of writing some additions to the existing swigxmltocom project to implment the required functionality.
