Suppose you have installed the xorg server, you could remove it easily. 
But it also matters how you installed. If you did it from ports, you can 
probably


cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg
make deinstall

I recommend that you read these manual pages:

pkg_info
pkg_add
pkg_delete
pkg_deinstall   (might not be on your system)


Best,

I highly recommend the pkg_cutleaves port, which makes this kind of thing
many orders of magnitude easier.

cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg

That just deletes the metaport (which is purely a list of dependencies),
try:

ports-mgmt/pkg_cutleaves
  

I stand corrected. :-)

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.
