Hi Mike..
I don't think there is any need to start stop ossec for deleting old alert file 
(I hope we are talking abt zipped and archived alert.log)...

U can create ur own script and schedule the same in cron.

Subject: [ossec-list] automatic delete of old alert files

Hi List!

Is it possible to use a cron job to delete old files?
Is it really necessary to stop / start ossec for this job?

Best regards,
Mike
