Take a look at Cache::Cache. It will help you not to repeat the 'get' too frequently.

    Are you reading my mind? ;-) That was one of the features I thought to implement as soon as possible. I planned to store the parsed data in a file and then check for the date of the file if older than one day then get the data from remote site otherwise read from file, etc.

    Cache::Cache seems to implement the kind of functionality I've mentioned above but if it is not a core module I think I'll prefer to implement it myself because I don't want to force my hosting company loading this module only for my small script ;-)

    By the way, I hope the URL downloading and parsing with RegExp part is ok and opimized...
