I use the following script. I think I found it on the mailman faq or
posted to this list. Note that I use a pre-made empty request.db. I was
getting over 100 requests a day on one of my lists. 
------------------------
#!/bin/bash
# usage remove_held <list>
# removes held messages
RM=/bin/rm
if [ $# != 1 ]
then
        echo "usage: $0 <listname>"
        exit -1
fi
LISTNAME=$1
EMPTY=~mailman/data/request.db.empty
HELD=~mailman/data/heldmsg-$LISTNAME
TARGET=~mailman/lists/$LISTNAME
if [ ! -e $EMPTY ]
then
        echo "$EMPTY not found"
        exit -1
fi
if [ ! -d $TARGET ]
then
        echo "$TARGET not found"
        exit -1
fi
$RM -fv $HELD*
cp $EMPTY $TARGET/request.db
exit 0
