Experimental measurements of the annihilation rate of a positron in fluid xenon show that it exhibits an anomalously nonlinear dependence on the fluid density. Recent path-integral Monte Carlo simulations of the system suggest that the nonlinearity results from the formation of xenon clusters which surround the positron at moderate densities. In this paper we investigate the ability of the analytic reference-interaction-site-model-(RISM) polaron theory to replicate these results, and provide richer information concerning the e + -xenon system over a wider range of circumstances. Two distinct closures of the RISM equation are considered, as well as the effects of altering the attractive part of the potential
