I would actually consider using another host -- one that would have the decency to make an exception and let your DB go past 1 GB for just one day so that you could reduce its size.
Beyond that, however, you could consider exporting some data in SQL format, like the user table, for example, and then deleting all users except yours. Then you make your fixes and then after, you restore that table.
Another idea would be to empty the other tables that end in "cache" as that should generally be safe.

You can empty the ‘objectcache’ table. Data in it will be computed again when needed. Note that doing this may also cause all users to get logged out, depending on your wiki configuration.
