When I tried running your one-liner, I was definitely seeing some strange ASCII characters.
I can't give you an explanation of what's happening or why there's a difference in outcome, but the code below seemed to download the file with no problems.
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::Simple;
my $fh;
my $file = "test.xml";
my $url = 'http://atys.ryzom.com/api/character.php?key=FR521366R0REA16
+F998&part=items';
open($fh,">",$file) or die "Unable to open file '$file': $!";
my $data = get($url);
print $fh $data;
close($fh);

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).
