You can file a port request ticket in the issue tracker. If the software is straightforward to install, a port should be easy to make. 

If you can contribute a portfile, that would increase the chance that the port can be added quickly. Otherwise you have to wait for someone to have the time to investigate the software and write the port.

For help writing portfiles, you can read the guide at http://guide.macports.org
