There are several problems with your code. 
open(INFO,"$score" ); # you need to check to see if this failed or not
open(INFO,"$score" )   or die "failed to open $score\n";
open(INFO2,"$player" ) or die "failed to open $player\n";

@score = split(/[,]/,$_); # you have a useless character class and 
                          # split uses $_ if nothing is specified
                          # this is not actually wrong it is just good
+ style

@score = split(/,/);      # but the split is not working on the file
                          # you think it is.
                          # This is splitting $_ from INFO2 which is t
+he player file. 
                          # It looks like you want the score file.
                          # This confusion most likely brought on by y
+our 
                          # inconsistant indentation style

if ($total[$index] == $score[0]) # You never increment $index. it's al
+ways 0

$total++;  # I think you meant $index but you created a 
           # new var called $total and incremented it

As you notice you have many things to fix. You will hear quite a few monks harp about use warnings (-w), use strict and check file open's, the reason is simple every one of your errors would have been evident if these checks were in place.
