I've done it another way from the one already suggested.

I use LWP::UserAgent to get data from a URL, save it to a file because it is a very large dataset I use more than once, do a bunch of manipulations, ultimately putting the data into arrays (@dates and @atemp in the code below) for various graphs, then graph.

  gnuplot({
        "title" => "",
        "output type" => "png",
        "output file" => "temp.png",
        "x-axis label" => "$day.$month.$year $time - $eday.$emonth.$ey
+ear $etime",
        "y-axis label" => "",
        "xdata" => "time",
        "format" => ["x", "%d.%m"],
        "timefmt" => "%Y-%m-%d-%H:%M",
        "xrange" => "[\"$dates[$index]\" : \"$dates[$j]\"]",
        "extra_opts" => join("\n","set grid", "set nokey", "set linest
+yle 1 lt 3 l
w 10","set lmargin 10","set rmargin 10","set tmargin 9","set bmargin 9
+" )},
        [{
        "style" => "lines ls 1",
        "type" => "columns"}, [@dates],[@atemp] ],);
  my $type = "AirTemp.png";
  my $ftype = "Days" . "$days" . "ATemp.png";
  my $finalgraph = printGraph($station,$type,$ftype);
}

In case anyone notices/wonders/tries to use this, some things are intentionally left blank and the file is called temp because I ultimately use GD to splice this onto a background image using the subroutine at the end called printGraph - I just thought I'd include the whole code block because I know it works.
