  You cannot register any site that has already been registered. There there is no expiration date on .wordpress.com blogs unused, reserved or otherwise. Staff will not breach the privacy policy and provide you with an email address for the username account.

  If you think you registered that site and cannot recall the email address you used you can try using the lost password link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword and then watch all possible email accounts you have for notification.

  If you did not register that username account then 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.
