If your installed OS is v10.8.4, you could try applying the v10.8.3 combo updater that Mark linked to. If Apple doesn't have any checks in the Installer that will prevent you from running the v10.8.3 combo updater, it will be the closest you will get to a v10.8.3 install. The combo updater overwrites every single file related to the OS that has changed since v10.8.0 was released. In theory, it should allow you to downgrade your OS. The only place this would fail is if v10.8.4 introduced an entirely new file that did not exist in v10.8.3.
This is another reason to keep your Install Mountain Lion app from the App Store in a safe place.
