How is the Rage power in the APG Come and get me work against natural attacks like 2 claws or similar attacks the power states
While raging, as a free action the barbarian may leave herself open to attack while preparing devastating counterattacks. Enemies gain a +4 bonus on attack and damage rolls against the barbarian until the beginning of her next turn, but every attack against the barbarian provokes an attack of opportunity from her, which is resolved prior to resolving each enemy attack.
does this mean if I am attacked by a dire lion when it uses it 2 claws and it's Bite I would get to hit it 3 times or just 2 as the opportunity attacks

Correct.
If it grabs you and makes a free grapple check, I wouldn't count that as an attack; HOWEVER, if it does grapple you and then RAKES you, then you'd be able to make an AoO... except for the little fact that you can't make AoOs when you're grappled!
Which is, I suppose, a reason to go with the barbarian archetype that lets you not have the grappled condition when you're grappled! :)
