So the lovely wizard has put a few mirror images around himself, but the enemy rolls a nat 20 on his attack against him.
Unfortunately his roll to see if he hits the caster or one of the images comes up as one of the images.
Is it still a miss and the image is gone now, or does the "always a hit" property of a nat 20 trump the Mirror Image?
The attack didn't miss. It hit; it just targeted a figment. The caster of mirror image is unharmed.
...If the attack is a hit, roll randomly to see whether the selected target is real or a figment...

Yeah, that's how I'd run it. It hits the image, not the wizard, wasting the 20.
Out of curiosity Quatar, do you allow 20s to bypass other types of miss chance, like the percentage chance from darkness or blur? (Not saying you're doing it wrong, just haven't seen anyone play it that way before).
Hm.... Could you cleave a target with Mirror Image, and if you hit (the creature, or an image) make an attack at the remaining images/creature?
No. The figments share the space of the caster while Cleave requires the 2nd target to be adjacent to the 1st.
