Rather than scaling down the modules. What three person party could possibly handle modules set for 5 person party?

Revenant Dwarf Battlemind, super heavy ranged-striker, and a very hard controller?

Maybe throw in some extra potions, scrolls and other temporary items so they can muscle up. And if desperate perhaps a pet or something they can use during the module to add extra firepower. Where would Drizzt be without Guenhwyvar !

I am sort of looking for ideal 3 person party suggestions. (i.e. race and classes) that could somewhat surive 5 person encounters but also feel challenging.

It's actually easier to scale down the modules than going the route you are. Give it a shot.

Three bow rangers multiclassed as shamans. Spirit companions set up as a wall, rangers unleasing twin-strikes from their greatbows.

Was just thinking you could swap the Battlemind for a Warlord (still Rev Dwarf) with lots of attack granting. The Controller to lock down a few baddies and clear minions, and a Greatbow Ranger to lay down the fire. Maybe a Wiz for the controller with optimized force movement to keep things at bay as long as possible?
Maybe something like this guy for your leader, though he was more aimed to help melee strikers than ranged.
