If you installed the those programs from the Ports 
Collection (/usr/ports/) you can uninstall it by going to 
the directory of that port and simple run "make deinstall 
clean" 

ex. to deinstall apache 
  # cd /usr/ports/www/apache13/ && make deinstall clean

or you can also use pkg_delete. to find out the exact name 
of the application that you want to uninstall use 
pkg_info.
  ex. 
     # pkg_info | more 
  this command will display something like 
-----------------
BitchX-1.0c19_3     "An alternative ircII color client
apache+mod_ssl-1.3.27+2.8.14 The Apache 1.3 webserver with
autoconf-2.13.000227_5 Automatically configure source code
awstats-5.6         Free real-time logfile analyzer to get 
bison-1.75          A parser generator from FSF,       
------------------

to uninstall apache type
   # pkg_delete apache+mod_ssl-1.3.27+2.8.14 



I hope this helps.
