You have basically two options:

You could do a ws_download of an empty table with the old filename. That
would leave an empty file on you Workstation.
The other would be to do a ws_execute to do the delete.
The downside I always have with ws_upload/ws_download is that you can't
start jobs using them as batch jobs. I usually prefer to read my files from
the application server via open dataset.
