The utility Janis mentions is for receiving & prorocessing FREQs.  From
re-reading your question, it appears that you want something to send the
request, so FREQ-U won't be of any use to you.  I use an old-school DOS/Win
command line program called Please.  It will work with any mailer that uses BSO
(like BinkD). Available from here (see origin line) by WaZoo file request as
PLEZ210.Zip

How it works...
From the command line, just type "Please get <filename> from <fido address>"

You'll have to build a trimmed down version of the BinkleyTerm control file,
but it isn't too tough to do, and there is a sample file in the archive.
