How about Net::FTP?  This is from the perldoc:

           use Net::FTP;

           $ftp = Net::FTP->new("some.host.name");
           $ftp->login("anonymous","me at here.there");
           $ftp->cwd("/pub");
           $ftp->get("that.file");
           $ftp->quit;


I don't know how comfortable you are with hardcoding passwords in a
script.
