    Could someone point me in the direction of a script, written in perl, that can detect the google pagerank of a site.

    This is rather urgent. Free scripts would be preferable.

    Thanks,
    Nathan

    The CPAN WWW::Google::pageRank Perl module is free: http://search.cpan.org/~ykar/WWW-Google-PageRank-0.13/lib/WWW/Google/PageRank.pm

    I've used it many times and it works just fine.

    You'll need to install it from a shell using the cpan command, so if you're on shared hosting you'll need to ask your host to do it (I've had several shared hosts do this for me; it's a small, inoffensive module, you should have no problem getting them to install it).

    Now, if for some reason your host can't/won't install it for you, it's possible to set it up and get it working by hand; it's just very tedious to do that way.

    Thanks! That's perfect. I've installed it without a problem on my server.
