I would assume that Perl is right when it points you to line 9.

...
foreach my($pair) (@pairs){
...

This is not valid Perl code. The valid Perl code would be (note the lack of parentheses)

foreach my $pair (@pairs){

But in all seriousness, why are you trying to do what is CGI.pm's job? Just use CGI; and then query $q->Vars to get a hash of parameters passed to your script. Don't parse query strings yourself.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;

use LWP::Simple qw(!head);
use CGI qw(:standard);  # then only CGI.pm defines a head()

my($id) = param('id');

my($id2) = get ("http://www.domain.com/stats.php?id=$id");

$id2 =~ s*\[Yesterday\]  *Yesterday: *g;

**LOTS more search and replaces go right here**

while(<DATA>) {
   if(/([\w\s]+:)\s([a-z]+)(\d+)\2/) {
    print "$1 ", sprintf("%5.2f\n",$3*0.4/100); 
  }
}


Name "main::DATA" used only once: possible typo at stats.cgi line 15.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at stats.cgi
+ line 11.  (Line geting the URL)
readline() on unopened filehandle DATA at stats.cgi line 15.
