I don't think they are after your "most interesting things you have written", they want to see your style and expertise which for the most part can still be seen in your most boring and non-frontier-breaking work ;-).
For example if you use an array instead of a hash to find duplicates of some strings in a 10 line script, I venture to guess you won't get the job. A hash and use strict might be already enough to get you into the top 5
It probably still helps to add a list of the interesting things with remarks that you are not allowed to show that.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
