If these are indeed HMAC MD5 hashes and you have the nonce associated  
with the hash, you can use a program called mdcrack available at http://membres.lycos.fr/mdcrack/ 
  or try the John the Ripper patch from bartavelle at http://www.banquise.net/misc/patch-john.html 
.

I have only limited testing of the John patch, but it does seem to  
work as advertised.
