Thanks for the good tips given already
The data is just records of users accessing data. I don't think there is existing modules for this data as it is very specific for this log and not generally used.
the fields could have e.g. mt=image/gif (media type downloaded, could be any mime type really...)
Also there is field for browser type e.g. "bt=Mozilla/4"
A real example would look like this:
at=200802221200/cs=59278/(9)mt=image/gif/(9)bt=Mozilla/4...
Which tells the time of access to media (at) the content size (cs) media type (mt) and browser that was used to access the content (bt). There is about 100 different field names and they all are 2 letter combinations followed by "=" and then the value ending with the field separator "/", which I btw can't unfortunately change.
Maybe the data could be split somehow with the fieldnames like KevinADC suggested.
Thanks

uri::data
URI::data(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation URI::data(3)
NAME
URI::data - URI that contains immediate data
SYNOPSIS
use URI;
$u = URI->new("data:");
$u->media_type("image/gif");
$u->data(scalar(`cat camel.gif`));
print "$u
";
open(XV, "|xv -") and print XV $u->data;
DESCRIPTION
The "URI::data" class supports "URI" objects belonging to the data URI scheme. The data URI scheme is specified in RFC 2397. It allows
inclusion of small data items as "immediate" data, as if it had been included externally. Examples:
data:,Perl%20is%20good
data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODdhIAAgAIAAAAAAAPj8+CwAAAAAI
AAgAAAClYyPqcu9AJyCjtIKc5w5xP14xgeO2tlY3nWcajmZZdeJcG
Kxrmimms1KMTa1Wg8UROx4MNUq1HrycMjHT9b6xKxaFLM6VRKzI+p
KS9XtXpcbdun6uWVxJXA8pNPkdkkxhxc21LZHFOgD2KMoQXa2KMWI
JtnE2KizVUkYJVZZ1nczBxXlFopZBtoJ2diXGdNUymmJdFMAADs=
"URI" objects belonging to the data scheme support the common methods (described in URI) and the following two scheme-specific methods:
$uri->media_type( [$new_media_type] )
Can be used to get or set the media type specified in the URI. If no media type is specified, then the default
"text/plain;charset=US-ASCII" is returned.
$uri->data( [$new_data] )
Can be used to get or set the data contained in the URI. The data is passed unescaped (in binary form). The decision about whether to
base64 encode the data in the URI is taken automatically, based on the encoding that produces the shorter URI string.
