Couldn't find this module on CPAN

Doesn't seem to be part of LWP.

my $req = HTTP::Request->new( GET => "http://....." );
$req->authorization_basic( "user", "password" );

works for me.

See also perldoc lwpcook
"
ACCESS TO PROTECTED DOCUMENTS

Documents protected by basic authorization can easily be accessed like
this:

use LWP::UserAgent;
$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => 'http://www.linpro.no/secret/');
$req->authorization_basic('aas', 'mypassword');
print $ua->request($req)->as_string;

The other alternative is to provide a subclass of LWP::UserAgent that
overrides the get_basic_credentials() method. Study the lwp-request
program for an example of this."
