Anyone have any secret sauce on how they keep the light lens clean on a forward mounted light(other than lens cap)? My Surefire is mounted about 1.5 inches rear of the muzzle device and still gets pretty sooted up.

Get a WD40 pen. 

Lightly coat the lens. The carbon and soot will stick to the WD40 and you can wipe it off easily.

I do this to all my weapon mounted lights

Another option is to move the light forward or back a bit.

i didn't know the wd40 trick. i backed mine up 2 or 3 inches

A light coating of whatever you use for a lubricant will work as well. So will a light layer of chapstick/balmex or Vaseline. I just prefer the WD40.

If it's really in bad shape already, a pencil eraser can get you back to a clear lens. Depending on the light - if it's a cheaper light with a plastic lens - you may scratch up the lens.
