I would guess that you've got files elsewhere still - or that the filesystem hasn't performed it's clean up yet.

You can check the former by running a huge find over the whole system:

Code:
find / -type f -user <you> 2> /dev/null

The latter can be checked by looking at the output from df -k on the filesystem your home dir is mounted on, has it reduced by the amount of stuff you deleted?
