  Username accounts are not deleted http://en.support.wordpress.com/deleting-accounts/

  If you want to remove personal information, lock up an account and free up an email address read what follows.

  1. You can go to My Account->Edit Profile and remove all data except the account name and an email address. Create a throwaway email address and change the account email to that throwaway address. This only leaves the username behind.

  2. To unsubscribe from email sent to you from WordPress.com, go here and click on “Block all subscription emails from WordPress.com”:

  3. To ensure the account is locked up tightly, visit this site, generate a password of 15-20 characters, and change the account password to it:

  You can delete your blog but I always suggest bloggers make the blog “private” because they may want to use it again one day in the future and deleted blog URLs here are not recycled. That’s why it takes ignoring 3 warnings and then clicking a verfication link in an email in order to delete a blog.
