[Perl] Silent Input

I would like to use the WWW::Mechanize module to access a webpage that is password-protected. I was wondering if there was a way to make the input silent when asked from the script. For example:

What is your password: <password>

Where <password> is where you put your password, but is silent and cannot be seen.

Thanks.
