Seeking help with a Perl module for translating languages

With Perl 5.8, I am trying to use the module WWW::Search::Translator,
which programmatically translates text between different natural languages
using babel.altavista.com.
When I run the sample code in the documentation, I get an error about a
missing param function. After web searches, I found that the CGI module
includes a function by that name, but using that module as well produced
another error message instead.
Can anyone help? Below is the error message, followed by the code.
Jamal
Undefined subroutine &main::param called at TranLang.pl line 2.
use WWW::Search;
%opts = (
lp => param(en_de),
);
$query = "a whole bunch of english text to be translated to german";
my $search = new WWW::Search('Translator');
$search->native_query(WWW::Search::escape_query($query),\%opts);
while (my $result = $search->next_result())
{
$p = $result->raw;
print "$p";
}
