It seems that direct democracy, anarchy and socialism stand in opposition to each other. Anarchists wouldn't want to follow majority decisions and I doubt that the electoral majority would vote for socialism, at least in most developed countries the actual socialist parties are small/nonexistent.

Did you ever read 'Anarchy, State, and Utopia' by Nozick?

It sounds like you're assuming that anarchists believe that they can reform the system from within. That's not what anarchists believe. I haven't read his book, but from what I gathered from summaries he based his book more against anarcho-capitalism rather than anarcho-communism.

Nozick turns away from factitious political gadgetry of his colleagues and wants to maximize personal liberties of every man, thus a minimal/libertarian state.
