I too couldn't resist. A single walk through the hash's keys is the fastest way I could think of doing this:

sub dkubb_compare {
  my $data  = shift;
  my $first = @{$data{scalar each %$data}};

  while(my $key = scalar each %$data) {
    return 0 unless $first == @{$data{$key}};
  }

  return 1;
}

IMHO, it's a little too obscure to be used in production code, but I think it still is a neat idiom.
