I think the following section in /usr/local/amavisd.conf
should answer your question:

   ### http://www.clamav.net/   - backs up clamd or Mail::ClamAV
   ['ClamAV-clamscan', 'clamscan',
     "--stdout --disable-summary -r --tempdir=$TEMPBASE {}", [0], [1],
     qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/ ],

Basically if clamd is not running Amavis will execute the
commandline scanner version of ClamAV. That's the reason why
you are still getting log entries.

So to sumarize: ClamAV's daemon is not running, thus
there is neither a PID file nor a UNIX domain socket.

So if you want to use the daemonized version of ClamAV,
you need to elaborate why the daemon isn't started.
