I would recommend mirod's site http://xmltwig.org/xmltwig/ as he is the author of XML::Twig. I find this section http://xmltwig.org/xmltwig/twig_stable.html particularly useful.
I think your code my @names = $twig->ancestors('values'); has two problems. Firstly it is actually looking for ancestors of the string itself (and there are none). You need to find every tag within the string and find theirancestors. Secondly you have an optional condition on the ancestors: the ('values') bit. This means you would only get ancestors called 'values'. If you want every ancestor, no condition is needed.

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).
