Select all elements that have the example.com value in href attribute:

$('a[href*="example.com"]');

You can also try this, just to be more specific and following the OP "ideal" answer:

Live Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/ksZhZ/

jQuery.fn.getElementsByHref = function(str){ return $('a[href*="' + str + '"]'); };

$(document).ready(function(){        
   elems = $(this).getElementsByHref('example.com');
});
