Try using the RasterExtentsCoercer. You can choose to extract the data extents. As long as teh area outside the polygon is nodata or (maybe even) masked with an alpha band this should give you what you want.
If this doesn't work you might have to preprocess the raster to make sure the are outside the polygon is set to NoData
You can use a RasterCellCoercer with output set to polygons and excluding nodata, and then pass the individual cell polygon to a Dissolver. The output of the Area port should be what you're looking for.

If the raster is huge, I agree. The RasterCellCoercer can be painfully slow.
Looking a bit further (thanks @d_l !) I see there is a RasterExtentsCoercer that should do what you want. Set it to Data Extents to exclude nodata values.

Ok, so I did a quick test. This only works if the area outside is NoData (an alpha band is not treated as no data.
If you have an Alpha mask then you can use a RasterBandSelector (select band '3'), RasterBandKeeper (this keeps just the Alpha band), then use a RasterBandNoDataSetter and select '0' for the NoData value. The RasterExtentsCoercer will then work well. I Tested this by clipping out the middle of a PNG file.
