In you're amavis config there will be a path variable. Eg.
	$MYHOME = '/var/amavis';

It looks like yours is probably set to /var/lib/amavis

Then in your cronjob, add the argument "--dbpath" to sa-learn:

sa-learn --ham --dbpath /var/lib/amavis


So, why do I have 3 different versions of this file with -almost- the same timestamp but
different sizes?

One is your cron job. One is amavis. The other seems to be something using plain spamassassin (not through amavis).
