Among other problems:

($time,$date) = split(/ /,$tmp[0]);

I don't think this line is doing what you think its doing. The contents of @tmp are something like

(08/08/03.08:01, 1.071, 1.274, 0.638, 0.197, 0.347)

...and you are trying to split the first element in the array, 08/08/03.08:01, on a non-existent space. This means that $time contains the whole string, while $date is empty!

I think you need something like this:

my ( $date, $time ) = split( /\./, @tmp[0] );

And note that I've changed the order of your scalar variables around!

my best advice to you is: 

use strict;
use warnings;
