IIUC you're not really asking how to "validate the .pl Files". You're rather asking how to find code that's possibly correct syntactically/semantically but that does something in an awkward or suboptimal way. If really so, then chances are that there may not be easy if (any) ways to do most of the things you want to.

After all

"Nothing but perl can parse Perl."

But some checks of some relevance for your needs may already be taken care of by the strict and warnings pragmas, since you did enforce their use anyway, didn't you?

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
