I would suggest you hack the file in the admin section that selects the links with status 'to be approved'.
I do not have that module, but probably within the function listNewLinks() or something like that, you will find a SQL statement that selects the new links.
Underneath you will most likely find something like:
$result = $xoopsDB->query($sql);
To limit the number of results to 10, change this to:
$result = $xoopsDB->query($sql, 10, 1);
It is just a temporary solution so don't mind that your admin page will tell you that there are 10 links waiting instead of 113
.
To create a permanent solution I would add a counter in the function that loops through the result. You should define the maximum number of links shown on the page somewher and if the counter exceeds this nummer, exit the loop.
