claim a site already in use
-
How does one go about requesting a site that is already in use but has had no activity in last couple of years?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

re: unused blogs
There is no expiration date on blogs unused or otherwise. If you can make contact on your own with the owner of an unused blog then there is a means of a consenting blog owner to transfer the blog to another username account. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account
In the case that there is no contact information Staff will not breach the privacy policy and provide you with an email address.
if you are not successful, you can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/
Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.

Contact the owner, by leaving a comment or contact form if they have one, and ask them to transfer the blog to you. That is the only way you can get hold of it, wordpress.com never recycles blog names.
