Greetings Kiko. There are a few ways to do this. Here's my attempt to show the raw basics. (Please don't try this in an enterprise solution...)

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CGI;
my $cgi = new CGI;
my $filename = $cgi->param("formuploadinputname");

my($bytesread,$buffer,$total);
open(OUTPUT, "> /var/home/me/somedirsomewhere/$filename");
binmode $filename;
binmode OUTPUT;

while ($bytesread = read($filename,$buffer,1024) ) {
    $total += $bytesread;
        if ($bytesread > 10000000) { # 10 meg filesize limit
            close(OUTPUT);
            unlink "/var/home/me/somedirsomewhere/$filename";
        }
    print OUTPUT $buffer;
}
close(OUTPUT);

A much better (much much better) example of how to do this sort of thing safely is Re: File Upload To Selected Directory written by Ovid. Give that node a deep read-through and you'll have a lot to play with.
