I think you need to limit this in your MTA and/or filter package. With 
amavisd-new, I think this is controlled by $max_servers in amavisd.conf 
(someone correct me if I am wrong). 

If you could set a limit in Clam, then Clam would need some mechanism for 
queueing messages, which is extra complexity that is unnecessary since the 
MTA can do this anyways.
