You've already said you want to use "rlm_perl". Have you read the sample 
config "raddb/modules/perl" and the same scripts that comes with the 
server source, "src/modules/rlm_perl/example.pl"?

Basically, you just:

  1. Define a perl module - see raddb/modules/perl for an example
  2. Put it in the server config at the point you want to run it
