Sorry about offending you.
I actually have read the FAQs (and perldocs) and the USENET
groups, many times over. I have looked at Dynalib
and XS as well (I probably should have mentioned that in
my original posting). The learning curve for XS is HUGE!
and Dynalib by itself cannot do the trick,
it even says so in it's documentation. I did not know about
the C::Dynalib module, and it looks like it might work for
me. Also, I did not know about SWIG, that is a
great tool and I appreciate you mentioning it to me. My
point to this whole question was that I was
just wondering if there was a widely used and accepted
module out there that had the very simple interface that
Win32::API had, but for UNIX based systems, and apparently
there isn't.
I do thank you for your help and will be much more careful
about how I phrase my questions.
Warmest Regards.

Try looking at the DynaLoader. I do believe it does load shared libraries.
Update: Oh and there is also the XSLoader. look at the man page for that one.

Take a look at perlxs; it's not going to be pretty, but that's probably the only way to get the job done.

There are FFI and C::Dynalib but you might have better luck building an XS module for this or using Inline to build the XS module.
