The second half of your question involves how to "highlight" these days on your calendar object. I'm not sure what you mean by highlight, but you will want to read up on how manipulations are performed on an HTML::Element, on which HTML:::ElementTable is built, from which HTML::CalendarMonth is derived.

You might be looking to do something like this, presuming your day numbers are in an array @days: 

  use HTML::AsSubs;
  ... # your @days gets filled in here
  my $c = HTML::CalendarMonth->new(month => $month, year => $year);
  $c->item(@days)->attr(bgcolor => 'wheat');

  # Or maybe you want a link
  my $link = 'http://www.somewhere.com/'
  foreach my $day (@days) {
    my $href = $link . "?$day";
    $c->item($day)->wrap_content(a({href => $href}));
  }
