Keeping a hash's size in check

Hey there, It is entirely possible that I'm approaching this problem the wrong way, and if so, I'll take any guidance on another solution to the problem. So with that said, here's my problem:...

Have you considered creating an when CLIENT_CLOSED event to keep the ::user HASH in check.

For Example: 

 
 when CLIENT_CLOSED { 
   if { [info exists ::users($clientip)] } { 
     incr ::users($clientip) -1 
     if { $::users($clientip) <= 0 } { 
       unset ::users($clientip) 
     } 
   }
