If an option isn't provided by the apt man page, the option most likely
is the same, as mentioned by the apt-get man page.

"clean
           clean clears out the local repository of retrieved package files. It removes
           everything but the lock file from /var/cache/apt/archives/ and
           /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/.

 autoclean (and the auto-clean alias since 1.1)
           Like clean, autoclean clears out the local repository of retrieved package files. The
           difference is that it only removes package files that can no longer be downloaded, and
           are largely useless. This allows a cache to be maintained over a long period without
           it growing out of control. The configuration option APT::Clean-Installed will prevent
           installed packages from being erased if it is set to off."
