Check out WWW::Mechanize - http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?WWW::Mechanize
The SYNOPSIS section will help you get started.

Mechanize is probably where I'd go. However, IIRC, there was a perl based
web spider that I remember seeing as looking through useragent names.

If you can't write your own pseudocode for a web spider then check
Bharathiar University for a more appropriate course. One version goes
function fetchall(URL)
content = get(URL)
loop for it over findlinks(content)
content = content + fetchall(it)
return content
end
Since the purpose of your efforts is to learn Perl, I think a module
like WWW::Mechanize is the wrong choice. To write a program that
accesses the internet, you should install and study the LWP library.

For my first ever web ap I started with Mechanize because I'd seen it
recommended here so many times. I don't believe it possible to use
Mechanize without having to become quite familiar with most of the
LWP library, particularly LWP::UserAgent, HTML::TreeBuilder,
HTML::Form.

yeah, that's why i like Web::Scraper. now that i know it (even though
it's been three month sense i've had the need for it), i can still
scrape a site in 15 minutes. but, for more intense stuff, i can
understand mechanize - most sites aren't that complex though.

LWP::RobotUA can be used in conjunction with other modules
in the LWP library suite too. It'll provide methods to ensure
appropriate spidering behavior, ie, not hitting sites too fast and
heeding a site's 'robots.txt' guidelines. This is very important for
any spidering programs you write.
