Done. I have posted it to my web site, which can be found at:
http://mysite.verizon.net/~mshapiro_42/index.html
From the main page, take the 'Misc' link, scroll to the bottom and
click on 'Cleanapt.' It is posted as a text file so that you can view
it online. Simply save the file to your computer and change or remove
the extension. You will need to modify the permissions to make it
executable. The program needs to be run as root to actually clean up
the archives. I run it with sudo. It will run and display the opening
statistics as a normal user, however.
