Well, I don't think he expected to walk up to the front door in human
form and be invited in for a cuppa.  I think he just wanted a glimpse
of Harry, which he did manage to get in his dog form.

The Dursleys have been living at 4 Privet Drive for some time before
James and Lily were killed, so it's not too unlikely that Sirius
would've known where his friend's relatives lived.  How he knew that
they were still in the same house 12 years later, and that Harry was
living with them, is a good question.  Maybe he just decided to take a
chance and got lucky.
