Every day I receive an email with contents similar to 

The listname@example.com mailing list has 2
request(s) waiting for your consideration at:

        http://www.example.com/mailman/admindb/listname
        
Please attend to this at your earliest convenience.  This notice of
pending requests, if any, will be sent out daily.

but when I go to the URL, the page says 

Database Updated...
listname Administrative Database
There are no pending requests. Click here to reload this page.

What is the reason for this?

It may be on the same server as the production Mailman or another backup, test or 'migration' server.

You need to find the Mailman instance that is actually sending the message and at least remove the crontab that is running its cron/checkdbs job.

MailmanWiki: DOC/I receive a daily "n LISTNAME moderator request(s) waiting" email, but there are no requests. (last edited 2010-08-03 08:25:46 by msapiro)
