view_cleanup error

Hi,

I do the following:

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5984/dbname/_view_cleanup

And I get back
{"error":"bad_request","reason":"Content-type must be application/json"}

I thought maybe it had to be that _view was actually the name of my
view that I wanted to cleanup
so _myview_cleanup

unfortunately that raised an error that Referer header required...

how do I cleanup my views.
