hey fellow pilgrims of the perl monks monastary

Is there a way to use check rm to see if the entries match an existing entry in a database?

Follows is my current checck rm routine:

  my ($results, $err_page) = $self->check_rm('register',
                                   {
                                     required => [qw/username
                                                password
                        password_check
                        email
                        email_check
                        real_name
                        year
                        month
                        date
                        sex
                        agree
                        /],
    dependency_groups => {password_group => [qw/password password_chec
+k/],
                email_group => [qw/email email_check/],
                },
                                      constraints => {
                        username => qr/^[a-z]\w{5,15}$/i,
              password => [
        {
                  constraint => qr/^\w{6,20}$/
        },
            {
                  name       => 'password_mismatch',
                  constraint => sub {
                      my ($password, $password_check) = @_;
                      return ($password eq $password_check);
                  },
                  params => [qw(password password_check)]
            }
        ],
              email => [
                {
                  constraint => 'email'
                },
                {
                  name       => 'email_mismatch',
                  constraint => sub {
                      my ($email, $email_check) = @_;
                      return ($email eq $email_check);
                  },
                  params => [qw(email email_check)]
                }
                ],
                year => qr/^[1][0-9][0-9][0-9]$/,
        month => qr/^[A-Z]\w{2,10}$/i,
        date => qr/^[0-9][0-9]$/,
                                },
                                     filters => ['trim'],
                                     msgs => {
                                               missing    => 'required
+',
                                               invalid    => 'invalid'
+,
                constraints => {
        'password_mismatch' => "Passwords don't match",
        'email_mismatch' => "Email Addresses don't match",
                        }
                                             }
                                   });
  return $err_page if $err_page;

So basically i want to read in the values compare them to the database, and if any of the entire exist return the error page, whilst maintaining the inputted values, the values that id like to check is, the username, email, real_name

The form can be found here and the entire routine(perl module) Here
