Is there any better / transparent way to do this, or to stop systemd from removing the directory when stopping the service?

See Nick's reply for details.

Or would it be better to use /var/run/radiusd.sock for the socket and avoid the usage of a subdirectory?

Absolutely not. As I said, the radius service should not have write permissions to the /var/run directory. It needs a subdirectory for security reasons. Alan DeKok.
