The best way is probably to go through Photoshop (like suggested by DA01) with your file. If you are unsure how much to tweak, here is an excellent tutorial on downsizing logos for smaller use: methodandcraft.com/videos/pixel-hinting-vectors-in-photoshop

The 'fuzz' is called anti-aliasing. It's a raster image method to smooth lines that fall in between pixel boundaries.

But since this is Illustrator, it's likely not raster, but vector, and what you are seeing is simply Illustrator's on screen rendering. If you zoom in, the anti-aliasing will likely disappear.

The issue may return, however, if you try exporting your file as a raster image of some sorts. Given the simplicity of the logo form, however, I'd suggest just sizing it the way you want, export it, then open it in PhotoShop to tweak the pixels as you see fit.
