There is basically nothing more to the proxy concept, than the fact
that you send the request someplace else.
Another way of doing it is to plug in an alternative
LWP::Protocol::http module that for instance pick up the IP address
from a request header.
Or you can try this:
local @LWP::Protocol::http::EXTRA_SOCK_OPTS =
(PeerAddr => "10.2.1.7");
print $ua->get("http://www.example.com/foo";);
