Unfortunately none of the scripts cleared the history on os 10.11.3 with
Safari 9.0.3.

Stockly script
(http://lists.apple.com/archives/applescript-users/2016/Feb/msg00158.html)
does nothing and shows error window "The action “Run AppleScript”
encountered an error."

Koenig script
(http://lists.apple.com/archives/applescript-users/2016/Feb/msg00159.html)
closes all tabs and widows, but does not clear history and shows error
window "The action “Run AppleScript” encountered an error."

Mills script
(http://lists.apple.com/archives/applescript-users/2016/Feb/msg00160.html)
does nothing and shows error window "The action “Run AppleScript”
encountered an error."

Hopefully you'll be debugging these scripts from Script Editor or Script Debugger instead of putting them into Automator workflows. BTW, that wasn't *my* script. I only showed a different way of detecting those lame fake windows in Safari.
Sent from iCloud's ridiculous UI, so, sorry about the formatting
