You could use javascript for this.  The command is 'top.close()'

For example, say you want the window to close as soon as the
controller has done it's work...

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
top.close();
});
</script>

Alternatively if you wanted more control, you could return top.close()
from the web2py ajax function, using the ":eval" option.  See pg 274
in the book for details.

Note that with this javascript command, the security settings on most
browsers will prompt the user with "Do you want to close this window?"
