Lane, there is no such record keeping now on
lists with active admins.
Simply put, there is no value to such a list. Many WMF mailing lists
get 100-200 or more spams a *day* in their moderation queues - many of
these inactive lists have thousands of spams in them, and there's no
value in publishing the spam.
Sorry, but just...no.

Why so? As I see the message, Lane only asked for a log entry like:
"On 2015-08-27 2500 mails that had been waiting for more than 90 days were
deleted from the list-admins queue"
Albeit, as I said, I do some value in getting some stats over that spam
corpus (the mail files, not the mailman summary).
It's also possible that it is a useless task. I can take a look at some of
the less hairy queues if you wish.
PS: "Records" of admin-active lists are sent to the admins mailboxes.
No, they aren't automatically - because that is an option that is selected
by the list admins for the individual list. And for all we know, some of
these unmoderated lists have been generating emails to email accounts that
were long since abandoned by the original list admins.
