Well, obviously this doesn't work and I end up getting "child pid

Is my aproach completely wrong? What would be the right way to solve
this kind of a problem?
I believe what you're doing should work, but I don't use threads for
anything. I'd probably fork and put the results in a database table
or file.
If you like the threads API, you might want to take a look at the
"forks" module on CPAN. It provides the threads API using fork(), and
hence does not have many of the problems that native Perl ithreads have.
