Es "¿está alguien allí?" una buena forma de escribir "is anyone there?" No suena bien a mi.
Gracias!

As Nelson said but if you are walking into a dark room and you say 'is anyone there' but not too far away you could say:
¿Hay alguien ahí?
Or if it's further away - like 'over there' you could use allá

Yep, Nelson's got the half nelson on the answer, but how about:
