Way ahead of you! In the next few days I will have a script added to this repo to generate the ajax requests to populate a full page of post IDs. Facebook doesn't allow you to browse your activity stream all at once, you have to keep clicking "more" and the previous month buttons.

Took me about an hour to do it all manually to grab my IDs from 2008 -> present, so a CasperJS script to automate this will put the purge script to much better use.

Lastly a python script to trigger the purge script in a multi-threaded fashion will allow you to submit multiple purge requests at once (obviously avoiding hitting any threshold limits).

ERROR - Fatal: No such file or directory; did you install phantomjs?
Even with phantomjs installed, casper spits errors

i was able to make progress. I collected all my fb IDs by loading the activity page on mobile and saving the HTML, parsing the IDs with awk and dumping to a text file. Next update I will make the script do all this for you in one fell swoop.
