I'm guessing that you need to remove the quotes like this:

>exten => 1,n,GoToIf($[${LEN(${numdial})}>7]?dialout:nodial);

You know neither side of the expressions will never be empty so you 
don't need them. You might also try something like:

>exten => 1,n,GoToIf(${len({numdial:7})}?dialout:nodial)

or even:

>exten => 1,n,GoToIf($["${numdial:7}"=""]?nodial:dialout);
