That's right, there is no PowerShell support for WAWS at the moment. Here is the answer from Microsoft on the WAWS forum: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/da-DK/windowsazurewebsitespreview/thread/f4e69962-a1ec-437f-b205-bb1664242ed2

Note that you could reverse engineer the Linux CLI: github.com/WindowsAzure/azure-sdk-for-node/blob/master/lib/cli/… – Sandrino Di Mattia Aug 2 '12 at 14:38

You can install the cross platform tools on Windows. First install Node.js then run npm install azure -g.

You then have access to Windows Azure Web Sites tools. You can watch me demo the tools on this episode of WebCampsTV
