perl has so many built in libraries that make parsing webpages a snap (Well perl isn't a snap, but still)
PHP is not ment for command line apps, its been modified for peopel to write apps with, but its not designed that way in mind.
Perl is a good scripting language.
Or shell script (ksh,bash,sh,csh, tclsh, etc etc etc) works too, with help from curl and such.
As for cheating the systerm, don't.
