I dont think you need backticks. Just try with

Code:
$cmd = qq(/path/to/csso stylesheet.css > stylesheet.min.css)

And capture the exit code by assigning system($cmd) to a variable

xslt-parser

XSLT-PARSER(1)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					    XSLT-PARSER(1)

NAME

       xslt-parser - XSLT transformations

SYNOPSIS

       xslt-parser [options] <project>

DESCRIPTION

       xslt-parser performs stylesheet transformations.

       When given a project name, it appends `.xsl' for the XSLT stylesheet and `.xml' for the XML file to apply the stylesheet to and performs
       the transformation using the XML::XSLT perl module.

OPTIONS

       -c  Pass through HTML::Clean.  You must have HTML::Clean installed.

       -d  Turns debugging on.	This can produce a lot of noise.

       -n  NoWeb.  You can use xslt-parser as a CGI script.  With this option, it will not output the headers that are usually needed.

       -s <file>
	   Specify a seperate different stylesheet.  Usually, xslt-parser will simply append `.xsl' to the project name to get the stylesheet.	A
	   different stylesheet can be specified using this option.
