Here's how they recommend doing it:
cd `brew --prefix`
rm -rf Cellar
brew prune
rm -rf Library .git .gitignore bin/brew README.md share/man/man1/brew
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/Homebrew
This should also revert your /usr/local folder to its pre-Homebrew days. See the Homebrew installation wiki for more information.
