does not work (the returned page is as if fields/params are wrong). however, w/ URI object I get my report: 
my  $reportLink = URI->new('http://www.website.com/report/runreport/30
+');
    $reportLink->query_form([
        'fields[xxx.name]' => 'a name',
        'fields[xxx.version]' => '5.34'
    ]);

$mech->put($reportLink);
