Patches to the CGI programs always welcome.

While I haven't tried the CGI HTML, it's quite feasable to parse other
HTML with the Perl modules HTML::Parser, HTML::LinkExtor, HTML::Table
(?).

There's a good introductory chapter to the use of HTML::Parser in
"Network programming with Perl", (example code on AWL web site), or for
less easy eaxmples perldoc HTML::Parser (after you have installed it).

There must be plenty of equivalent classes/modules for Java, Python,
Ruby, C++ etc.

'...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the
continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a
manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes
me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...'
