I'm not sure about iK. The refs only have 思いの外 but 他 isn't an irregular kanji for ほか.

Adverbial usage is most common. Occasionally [adj-no] as in "思いのほかの好成績" (daijs example). 思いのほかに is reasonably common but I'm not sure what to do about the tags. I considered adding [adj-na] but 思いのほかな gets very few real hits.
