Thanks for taking a closer look. I skimmed over the callback stuff in LWP::Useragent and it didn't leave me optimistic. Might be more useful if I write this using just LWP::UserAgent, but I don't think I will have time for that.

I'll look into writing to a file. My guess is that I'm going to hit the max data cap regardless, unless REST::Client is setting a cap to protect the user.

Hmm, maybe I'm thinking about this the wrong way. If I hit max data then I know I have pending changes, so a restart is needed. So I know I hit max data I can proceed with my processing (checking if a restart is already in progress). I'll check what error information REST::Client gets me and see what I can do with that.
