I found/modified this chunk of code when I wanted to find the total size of files matching a pattern in a directory, i.e. the total size of *.pm in ~/. I first used it on win32 in a perlTk program so I know it works well. 
package sizes;

require 5.001;

use strict;
use vars qw(@ISA $VERSION);
$VERSION = "1.0";
@ISA = qw(Exporter);

sub new {
        my $self = {};
        my $pkg = shift;
        $self->{dir} = shift;
        $self->{pat} = shift;
        $self->{dh} = undef;
        bless $self;

        opendir $self->{dh}, $self->{dir}
                || warn "cannot open dir: [".$self->{dir}."] $!\n";

        return $self;
}

sub check {
        my $self = shift;
        $self->{size} = 0;
        while (my $file = readdir($self->{dh})) {
                next unless $file =~ /$self->{pat}/;
                my $fqpn = $self->{dir}.'/'.$file;
                print STDERR "size $fqpn: ".$self->{size}."\n";
                $self->{size} += -s $fqpn;
                print STDERR "size $fqpn: ".$self->{size}."\n";
        }
        print STDERR "rewinding\n";
        rewinddir($self->{dh});

        return $self->{size};
}

sub DESTROY {
        my $self = shift;
        closedir $self->{dh};
}


1;

use sizes;
$checker = sizes->new($dir,$pat);
$size=$checker->check();
