I play as Romans and have often have the same issue you describe...being charged before I can fire off a round of pilum.
I dint think there is any solution to prevent this.
I tend to play like you do...double click my roman infantry into attack, fire, then manual 'halt' before issuing new orders. My targets tend to be an enemy who is distracted with another target. This way I dont risk the counter charge whilst my troops throw their pila.
