Hi,
You can delete your blog with the details on this support page:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/delete-blog/
However, since we don’t want other people to have your username in the future, we don’t delete usernames (they are kept so they cannot be recycled).
Here’s a few suggestions for you if you’d like to scrub the account:
1) If you are trying to unsubscribe from emails sent to you from WordPress.com, go to the Reader tab on the WordPress.com home page, click Email delivery settings, then click on “Block emails”.
2) You can go to the Settings tab (gear icon) on the WordPress.com home page 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.
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:

4) While you cannot completely delete your Gravatar profile, you can remove all of your profile information easily through the “Edit My Profile” page.
You can also hide your Gravatar profile from external access. Visit your profile page (click your name in the top navigation of the website), then click the “Hide My Profile” link in the bottom, right-hand corner.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
