I mean fixing the url to convert relative to absolute pathnames. Just include tokeparser as suggested and you're there.

something like this:
(btw. not my code from http://perl.com):

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP;
use URI;

  my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;

      my $url = 'http://www.cpan.org/RECENT.html';
        my $response = $browser->get($url);
          die "Can't get $url -- ", $response->status_line
             unless $response->is_success;

                 my $html = $response->content;
                   while( $html =~ m/<A HREF=\"(.*?)\"/g ) {
                         print URI->new_abs( $1, $response->base ) ,"\
+n";
                           }
