Not sure if you’re looking to do this through code. If not, Altova XMLSpy, for example, provides an option to “Generate Sample XML File” – with options to generate only mandatory fields.
Otherwise, if you’re working with Java, for example, you can use something like the Eclipse XSD project for programmatic access to the XSD. (It even works without Eclipse.) Some additional details at Are there any other frameworks that parse XSD other than XSOM? .
