xargs is a more general/scalable solution to many problems.
Having reread the OP, I think he meant "have" rather than "haven't" in the following:
"I can't use the -atime or the -mtime commands because not all the files that haven't been modified or accessed can be deleted."
So how about using -ctime ?
I know c means change not create, but that should
be the same.
