Is it okay to order a pot of tea in Australia and ask for an extra cup?

Yes, it’s fine. Pots are most commonly ordered to share (and priced to match, so the restaurant doesn’t lose any money), and I’m quite surprised there’s a place where they’re not meant to be. Often, particularly in Chinese/Vietnamese restaurants (in Australia, mind you), they’ll bring cups for everybody even without asking.

I wouldn’t read too much into the frowns. Yes, you should have ordered the extra cup at the same time, but Australian restaurants tend to be understaffed (because of high wages) and harried, surly staff are not uncommon.
