  I deleted a blog site from my personal blog, in order to add that site’s url to a separate login, and it says the url is unavailable. But I know it is available because I just deleted the site.

  No.
  It’s gone, forever:

  Addresses (URLs) for blogs that have been deleted by the owner will remain deleted. We cannot, under any circumstances, allow someone to take over the address of a blog that was owned and deleted by its original/previous owner. Please do not submit support requests asking us to do this.

  Deleting a site permanently removes it and you’ll never be able to reuse its WordPress.com address (such as yourgroovysite.wordpress.com).
