Be sure you don't measure the wrong thing. Read Chapters 21 (How Program Size Affects Construction) and 22 (Managing Construction) of Code Complete (ISBN ISBN 1556154844). It has pragmatical advice that should apply to all languages, even to Perl. From Table 22.2, p. 545, "Useful Metrics": Size

There are also metrics listed for Defect Tracking, Overall Quality, and Maintainability, but I won't type those in here. Get the book and read it.
