Here is some rough code. You would need to wrap it in a html macro.

<script type="text/javascript>
AJS.toInit(function(){
    var user = AJS.Meta.get('remote-user');

    AJS.$.ajax({
        type: 'GET', //or POST
        url: 'Your URL', //this should pass back the parameter based on the user submitted to it
        processData: true,
        data: {
            u: user
        },
        dataType: 'json' //xml, json, script, or html
        success:  function(data) {
            var pagenumber = //Your logic to get the parameter here;

            AJS.$('#container to hold the link').append('<a href="https://www.example.com/mypage.aspx?user=' + user + '&pagenumber=' + pagenumber  + '">Link Text</a>');
        },
        error:  function(x, y, z) {
            //Error handling code here.
        }, 
    });
});
</script>
