I don't exactly see any problem here. If you want files older than X
seconds, and you have a modification time... Then you can unlink()
them can't you?!
I think you pretty much found the solution yourself. But just in
case... Take a look at the following manual pages and create a
construction with them. I think these are all you need.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.opendir.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.readdir.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.closedir.php
(in order to scan your directory)

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stat.php
(in order to get the modification time)

Hope this helps... And if this wasn't the problem... Tell me/us!
