What does this mean?
    

This means that these processes are reading requests being sent to them. If 
most of your processes are in reading state, you either have a massive 
network problem, or somebody is trying to DoS you by opening connections and 
very slowly sending requests that never actually do get finished, thereby 
tying up the process/thread. Have a look at 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#timeout to see how you can 
reduce the time Apache will wait in Reading state.

Thanks - that solved it. Not sure what happened but had a very high load problem.
