Dear Monks

I am trying to access translations provided by MyMemory (http://mymemory.translated.net/). There is a simple API (http://mymemory.translated.net/doc/spec.php). I am not an expert in doing such tasks... I just thought to access the data using LWP::UserAgent, pars it and print the results. However I get an error (unauthorized) even if the service is (now) free and accessible without any sort of registration (maybe of interest for other monks?). Am I doing programmatically something wrong in the following code? If what I am doing is okay, I would certainly contact MyMemory. 

use LWP::UserAgent;
use strict;

  my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
  #my $mymemory_url="http://mymemory.translated.net/api/get?q=Hello Wo
+rld!&langpair=en|it";
  my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => 'http://mymemory.translated.net/
+api/get?q=Hello World!&langpair=en|it');
  my $res = $ua->request($req);
  if ($res->is_success) {
    my $translation= $res->content;
    print "Mymemory: $translation\n";      
  }
  else {
    print "Impossible retrieving from MyMemory\n";
  }
