By the time they run out of arrows the battle is already over, so I just use regular archers type units instead.

When you have the dual-purpose unit selected just hold alt while clicking on the unit you wish to attack. This will cause a ranged unit to attack with melee but doesn't change the default from ranged.
Most mounted ranged units can double as weak light calvary and make for great players to pursue units that have been routed. You can also melee-charge ranged-foot units with them as well and take away some of the edge foot have in the shooting contest vs mounted.
