I'm checking remote clamd.amavisd processes using check_clamd & nrpe via 
the following:

On the remote servers in /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg:

command[check_clamd]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_clamd -H 
/var/run/clamd/clamd.sock

Then from the nagios server defining a service to call this:

check_command check_nrpe!check_clamd
