A slight bit more "regex kung-fu" is needed.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $num =1;
while(<DATA>)
{
if ( (/^Services\s*$/../^Users\s*$/) =~ /^(\d+)(?<!^1)$/ )
{
last if $1 <= $num++; #only first Services section
next if /^====/ || /^\s*$/; #if you don't want these
print "$_";
}
}

I highly recommend reading: not only
Flipin good, or a total flop?, but some of the responses in that node that talk about eliminating start and end conditions - shows how to do "regex-fu" like above!
