  Deleting a blog is forever, the URL cannot be recycled and reused.

  You can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Or you can purchase a domain name via a domain mapping upgrade as in that case it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
