You can check for user owned files to delete/move:
Code:

find /var -user user -type f
or
Code:

find /var -writable -type f
The tracker cache db comes up on mine, which should be safe to delete (after killing tracker).

When I kill mafw-tracker-source it keeps respawning.

The -writable function is missing form the busybox implementation of find, as is "-ls". I am missing both today. The busybox implementation of 'ps' doesn't list parent processes either...

I think it's trackerd you need to kill. And sorry, I didn't test the -writable option :o

trackerd is not running. If it is normal for it to be running, I suspect the 100% full condition is causing more casualties than I had been seeing...

I'm pretty sure it's normally running, yes.

If you've still not been able to free up any space, then I can only see a couple of remaining options. You could enable R&D Mode or you can reflash.

As the firmware was released on the 14th, I just went ahead and reflashed. It saved me the time of finding out what was using so much space on my root partition...
