Try this:

Code-behind:

[WebMethod]
public static void ClearYourSessionValue()
{
    // This will leave the key in the Session cache, but clear the value
    Session["YourKey"] = null;

    // This will remove both the key and value from the Session cache
    Session.Remove("YourKey");
}

JavaScript:

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "PageName.aspx/ClearYourSessionValue",
    data: "{}",
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
    dataType: "json",
    success: function(msg) {
         // Do something interesting here.
    }
});
