In the default mailman install, a subscription is automatically disabled when mail starts repeatedly bouncing. The subscriber is then emailed a reminder every 4 weeks telling them that they are disabled and that they can re-enable their subscription. After 5 weeks the account is removed (unsubscribed).

5 weeks ago many email boxes started to overflow with virus laden email. So if you notice a sudden flurry of unsubscribes from your mailman hosted lists, it's probably just those inactive email addresses finally being removed from your list roster, 5 weeks later.
