I know that the installed files are these:

DivXc32.dll
DivXc32f.dll
DivX_c32.ax
DivXa32.acm
L3codeca.acm

I have tried manually and successfully unregistered the .ax file using regsvr32 /u, but the DLLs give me an error about an entrypoint not being found and that they might not be valid DLLs. I am also worried about whatever registry entries that were written during installation to not become orphaned. Do you know of a way to do it automatically and thorouglhy?

I found none of those entries in the registry, although while browsing through drivers.desc I did find the entry for the Fraunhofer MP3 codec which you didn't put in your list.
