A mailman shell interaction like this should do it.

Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell
Use commit() to commit changes.
Use abort() to discard changes since the last commit.
Exit with ctrl+D does an implicit commit() but exit() does not.

 >>> pendings = getUtility(IPendings)
 >>> for token, data in pendings.find(pend_type='unsubscription'):
...     if data and data['list_id'] == 'the_list.example.com':
...         pendings.confirm(token, expunge=True)
...
 >>> commit()

In the above, replace the_list.example.com with the actual list_id (the list posting address with '@' replaced with '.')

If there are no other lists with pending unsubscriptions, you can omit the and data['list_id'] == 'the_list.example.com' check.
