Did you have a look at the man page for imklaunchagent? "man imklaunchagent" in Terminal.app says:


imklaunchagent is automatically invoked to launch input methods that are selected via direct user inter- action. It is not intended to be invoked via other means and must not be terminated. imklaunchagent monitors abnormal behavior and will disallow an input method from launching if it repeatedly terminates unexpect- edly within a short timespan.


Everything is fine, no need to worry ;-)
