I used snmpv1, blocking, and printf instead of print; also, I added DEBUG_ALL to make it more interesting: 
# /usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Net::SNMP qw(:snmp DEBUG_ALL);

my $OID = '1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0';

my ( $session, $error ) = Net::SNMP->session(
    -hostname  => shift || 'localhost',
    -community => shift || 'public',
    -version   => 'snmpv1',
    -debug     => DEBUG_ALL,
);

my $result = $session->get_request( -varbindlist => [$OID], );
if ( !defined $result ) {
    $error = $session->error();
    printf "GET_REQUEST ERROR: %s: %s\n", $session->error();
    $session->close();
    exit(1);
}
printf "The TimeTicks for host '%s' is %s\n",
    $session->hostname(), $result->{$OID}, "\n";

$session->close;
exit(0);
