is there some way you can unmerge all packages you've merged ?

hmm...

for i in $(qpkg -I | awk -F ' ' '{ print $1 }') ; do
emerge unmerge ; done

but... hmm, this will completly break your system.. and.. I even guess that once emerge will be uninstalled, it won't even finish to break your system..

If you want to unmerge everything, why not reinstalling from scratch, and keep your /etc ?
