Typically with Perl there is more than one module for this :)

- pQuery | https://metacpan.org/module/pQuery

- Mojo::UserAgent | https://metacpan.org/module/Mojo%3a%3aUserAgent

- Scrappy | https://metacpan.org/release/Scrappy

- Web::Query | https://metacpan.org/module/Web%3a%3aQuery

- Web::Magic | https://metacpan.org/module/Web%3a%3aMagic

Above are specifically for scraping but one shouldn't forget WWW::Mechanize & LWP.

My preference over last few years is with pQuery. However Web::Query is Tokuhiro's pQuery improvement and Mojo::UserAgent looks very nifty.
