Comment(by conradwt@…):

 OK, after looking at main.log, npm is being completed uninstalled when one
 does the following:

 {{{
 sudo port uninstall npm
 sudo port clean --all npm
 }}}

 For example, after executing the above, I'm still left with the following:

 {{{
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  8 15:38 npm ->
 ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  8 15:38 npm-g ->
 ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  7 18:15 npm-g.mp_1323310545
 -> ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  7 21:47 npm-g.mp_1323323255
 -> ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  7 18:15 npm.mp_1323310545 ->
 ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  7 21:47 npm.mp_1323323255 ->
 ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  8 15:38 npm_g ->
 ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  7 18:15 npm_g.mp_1323310545
 -> ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  admin          38 Dec  7 21:47 npm_g.mp_1323323255
 -> ../lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js
 }}}

 Furthermore, when checking to see if npm is installed:

 {{{
 $ port installed npm
 None of the specified ports are installed.

 $ which npm
 /opt/local/bin/npm

 $ npm list
 /opt/local/lib
