You could try something like:

deleted_buffer := current_buffer;
get_buffer(file);
delete (deleted_buffer);


Where file has been set up to be the main buffer. It might also be a good
idea to check that it's not the main buffer you're in, which could be done
by:

if (get_info(current_buffer,"name") = file) then
	message("Can't delete main buffer");
