There might be a way to ask XP to ask dd-wrt to DNAT the port on your behalf... Otherwise, it appears Net::UPnP is designed to do what you're looking to do. It's just a matter of navigating that documentation.

It seems you want to make a control point, somehow locate the devices, and then issue a postaction. I'm fuzzy on the details, but I bet it looks something like this: 

use Net::UPnP::ControlPoint;

my $obj = Net::UPnP::ControlPoint->new();
my @dev_list = $obj->search(st =>'????', mx => 3);

my $service = $dev->getservicebyname('?????');
   
$service->postaction('????', { ??? => ???});
