I've been using version 3, and "Auto/AllDocs" doesn't seem to work. However, you can retrieve the index names and delete that way, for example:

        var indexDefinitions = _documentStore.DatabaseCommands.GetIndexes(0, 100);
        foreach (var indexDefinition in indexDefinitions)
        {
            _documentStore.DatabaseCommands.DeleteByIndex(indexDefinition.Name, new IndexQuery());
        }

With the latest edition of RavenDB you can simply use the built in Auto/AllDocs index.

    private static void DeleteFiles(IDocumentStore documentStore)
    {
        var staleIndexesWaitAction = new Action(
            delegate
            {
                while (documentStore.DatabaseCommands.GetStatistics().StaleIndexes.Length != 0)
                {
                    Thread.Sleep(10);
                }
            });
        staleIndexesWaitAction.Invoke();
        documentStore.DatabaseCommands.DeleteByIndex("Auto/AllDocs", new IndexQuery());
        staleIndexesWaitAction.Invoke();
    }
