Here's how I achieved it.
{% load i18n %}
{% if choices|length > 9 %}
<h3>{% blocktrans with title|escape as filter_title %} By {{ filter_title
}} {% endblocktrans %}</h3>
<FORM>
<SELECT style="width:100%" id="filter-{{ title|escape }}"
onchange="window.location=this.value">
{% for choice in choices %}
<OPTION{% if choice.selected %} selected="selected"{% endif %} value="{{
choice.query_string|iriencode }}">{{ choice.display|escape }}</OPTION>
{% endfor %}
</SELECT>
</FORM>
{% else %}
<h3>{% blocktrans with title as filter_title %} By {{ filter_title }} {%
endblocktrans %}</h3>
<ul>
{% for choice in choices %}
<li{% if choice.selected %} class="selected"{% endif %}>
<a href="{{ choice.query_string|iriencode }}">{{ choice.display }}</a></li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% endif %}
The else option is simply a duplication of djangos own admin/filter.html
