You could probably make a good start with:

# pkg_deinstall -rf xorg-\*

check 1st what it will deinstall (without actually deinstalling):

# pkg_deinstall -frn xorg-\*

Finally, you want to:

# echo "WITHOUT_X11=yes" >> /etc/make.conf

to stop yourself accidentally installing stuff based on X in the
future.
