If they're dark stains you can try some dilute bleach applied with a cotton bud. If there's a finish it will need to be removed before you can get to the stain.

I had to get some stains out of a varnished wood window sill that were the result of pot plants overflowing. There I took the varnish off with a palm sander, treated the stains as above. Once they were mainly removed I then refinished with a new coat of stain/varnish. Not perfect but you'd have to look pretty hard.
