"Soak" is a misnomer for what is actually done.
What people usually do is to pierce the cake with thin skewers or thin knitting needles and then sprinkle the rum over the cake - do not use too much, you don't want a soggy cake.
Wrap the cake in tinfoil or greaseproof paper and place in an airtight container.
Repeat the process at weekly intervals - alternating with pouring the rum on the top and on the bottom of the cake.

How do you make a dry fruitcake moist with out rum or brandy?
Don't over mix it, and don't over bake it. Remember, cakes continue to bake for a little while even after you remove it from the oven. If you are still looking for the rum/brandy flavor, try visiting a cake supply store in your area. They have flavor syrups and concentrated flavors in a wide variety. Simply removing the liquor from your recipe won't dry it out, infact rum/brandy won't contribute to moisture in your cake.
