Unfortunately, you can't look up sessions by user, so you've have to load every active session and see if its for the user you wish to logout. Alternatively, you could create your own mapping of users to sessions, or add some middleware that verifies the user is active on every request, and signs them out if not (so the logout wouldn't happen during the cron job, but rather the first time they try to access the site after being marked inactive).
