Your call to post() looks wrong:

> my $res = $ua->post('http://search.cpan.org/search', (perl test2 query=>'libwww-perl',mode=>'dist'));

The manual says:

    $ua->post( $url, \%form )
    $ua->post( $url, \@form )
    $ua->post( $url, \%form, $field_name => $value, ... )

 There is no greater magic than knowing exactly who and what you are.
