The "GET data" is just the URI requested. You can mess with that easilly.
POST data is slightly trickier but should also be possible through the
Apache API.
If that's all you want do, don't bother using mod_perl for it. It sounds
like you could maybe do it with mod_rewrite or a tiny custome TransHandler
written in C. No need to use all that memory loading Perl just for this.
