The dirtiest way to do this is: 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w 
 
use strict; 
 
for (1..273) { 
    `wget http://www.my-site.com/mydir/?Page=$_`; 
}

Ouch! You're not kidding. Using backquotes in a void context! Not only is it messy because it forks needlessly (thanks to the question mark), but you're also capturing the output just to discard it!

Here's code that will be much saner and faster. In fact, you can run it multiple times, and it downloads only the changed files, if "if-modified-since" is supported by the server: 

use LWP::Simple qw(mirror);
for (1..273) {
  mirror "http://www.my-site.com/mydir/?Page=$_", "file$_";
}
