I did a search and some guys over at the AR15 site say they've had this problem with Duracell and even Energizer alkaline as well.I get that. What setting did you have the aimpoint on?
I don't have aimpoints that take AA, but I have many of those cheap AAA Sig Romeo 5 and have let them sit for more than a year without experiencing corrosion build up. I wonder if the "shake awake" feature keeps the draw low enough to prevent that.
I've only ever used Duracell, they aren't perfect though.
I usually leave it on a mid setting, a couple clicks past the NV settings. It's enough to see it in the day but I always figure if I ever needed if for defense it would be at night - so mid is plenty bright.
