One thing you could do would be to automatically give XP based on
name/e-mail address appearing in the core perl distribution source-code and also points for each CPAN module they have
authored.
Here's some quick code I cobbled together to give a list of e-mail addresses and # of perl modules contributed to CPAN....
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use LWP::Simple;
my $authors = get("http://www.cpan.org/authors/00whois.html");
my %aem;
my %aec;
while($authors=~/A NAME=\"([A-Z]+)\"\>.+?\<\;([^\&]*)\>\;/gcs){
$aem{$1}=$2;
$aec{$1}=0;
}
my $modules = get("http://www.cpan.org/modules/01modules.index.html");
while($modules=~/A HREF=\"[^\"]+authors[^\"]+\"\>([A-Z]+)\<\/A\>\s+\<A
+ HREF=\"[^\"]+\"\>([^\<]+)/gcs){
$aec{$1}++;
}
my $k;
foreach $k (sort keys %aem){
if($aec{$k}>0){
printf "%4d %s\n",$aec{$k},$aem{$k};
}
}

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
