I checked the case again & I found that I have to upgrade the database in order 
to purge normally.
Is there a problem or bad impact if I performed this workaround and purge the 
table manually as you showed me?

I don't need any stats history. Please advice. 

Regards,

You are running into a bug in 11.2.0.2. See:

SYSAUX Grows Because Optimizer Stats History is Not Purged (Doc ID 1055547.1)
Bug 14373728 - Old statistics not purged from SYSAUX tablespace (Doc ID 
14373728.8)

I've run into the same issue. Manually purging stats wasn't working for me, so 
I truncated the table and rebuilt the indexes. I'm not suggesting you do this. 
I didn't care about stats history and did it as a workaround until that 
database gets upgraded.
