> How do I force binkd to poll when acting as a server only

I touch the flow file from cron when I want to poll nodes on a schedule.

You can also run ./binkd -Pp 1:234/567 binkd.conf. That will run binkd and create a flow file for the poll, poll that node and perhaps other nodes that have mail waiting and then quit.
