By default "rabbitmqctl list_queues" displays the queue name and the
queue depth,  which is the total of ready and unacknowledged messages.
The messages you are attempting to retrieved are probably
unacknowledged. Use this to check whether there are any ready messages:
"rabbitmqctl list_queues name messages_ready"

Also see the documentation, included with the rabbitmqctl command and
online: http://www.rabbitmq.com/man/rabbitmqctl.1.man.html
