Look into "man clamd.conf" :

       ScanRAR
              Enable scanning of RAR archives. Due  to  license  issues
              libclamav does not support RAR 3.0 archives (only the old
              2.0 format is supported). Because some users report  sta-
              bility  problems  with  unrarlib it's disabled by default
              and must be enabled in the config file.
              Default: disabled

There will be full suport for RAR archives in a future version.  With the
current version you can only have full support if you use clamscan with an
external program (option --unrar[=FULLPATH]), clamdscan does not have this 
option.

I'm leaving out a lot of information and alternatives, but this may answer your
question.
