Not so long ago I was mrpropered my /home. You situation is much harder but... There is exist utility sys-fs/extundelete and if you have ~500-600mb of unparted disk space(and of course your /<removed usr> is ext fs), you can create new /usr there, unpack stage3's /usr to /<newusr>, chroot, emerge extundelete, and try to restore all your data. But for my experience it restored ~20-30%, may be you'll be more lucky.
