I have used check_radius.pl by Carlos Vicente sucessfully in the past (it's title is "Perl check radius" on nagiosexchange.org). I found that after a month though the password for the radius account I was using would time out and the check would fail. Fair enough, but the admin of the Radius server would never get around to resetting the password for me so I gave up in the end and have stopped monitoring it. Good luck.
