This'll do it once you identify the right buttons: Selenium. Pick the WebDriver for your browser, and then start writing code to pull up a browser and start pretending to be you clicking the buttons.

I know there's Selenium IDE on there that's easier, but it's too fragile for anything of this scale. You could record it logging in and then hitting delete once, and then it fails because it can't find the next delete link.
