I seem to remember seeing some taxis at the train station but in order to get to Ostia Antica site from the station you have to walk up and over a bridge and then It's a 5 min walk down to the entrance which would be a better place to call for a taxi.I don't recall seeing any taxis there. Perhaps ask for a return when you get the taxi out to Ostia. There is also a good cafeteria inside the site should you need to eat and drink.
