You're going to need to nest your query:

SELECT um2.site_name, COALESCE(count_um.total, 0) as total
FROM user_main um2 LEFT OUTER JOIN
     (SELECT    um.site_name, count(um.cus_id) AS total
     FROM    user_main um
     WHERE    NOT EXISTS
             (
             SELECT    cus_id
             FROM    user_sys_messages usm
             WHERE    usm.cus_id = um.cus_id
            ) 
     GROUP BY um.site_name) count_um 
		ON um2.site_name = count_um.site_name
ORDER BY um2.site_name
