Social engineering (in the good way). Invite customers, clients, partners, suppliers, etc. to run your perl script from their various locations and upload the results somewhere central. You'll need a broad sample over a lengthy period of time for better stats.

To do it from a single Internet host is costly, unless you happen to already own a lot of different address blocks or have multiple egress points to the Internet throughout the world.

This is more of a network routing issue than a perl issue IMHO. Never hurts to ask, though.
