the fact that it works outside the perl script with apache user, I believe it should work inside the script as well. May be try pushing the STDERR to the file that you are writing and check if the file has any pointers to error. Try making file to /tmp/test.css to ensure that writing part if not failing.

Code:
$cmd = qq(/path/to/csso stylesheet.css > /tmp/stylesheet.min.css 2>&1)
system($cmd);

pod::pseudopod::html

Pod::PseudoPod::HTML(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				 Pod::PseudoPod::HTML(3pm)

NAME

       Pod::PseudoPod::HTML -- format PseudoPod as HTML

SYNOPSIS

	 use Pod::PseudoPod::HTML;

	 my $parser = Pod::PseudoPod::HTML->new();

	 ...

	 $parser->parse_file('path/to/file.pod');

DESCRIPTION

       This class is a formatter that takes PseudoPod and renders it as wrapped html.

       This is a subclass of Pod::PseudoPod and inherits all its methods.

METHODS

   add_body_tags
	 $parser->add_body_tags(1);
	 $parser->parse_file($file);

       Adds beginning and ending "<html>" and "<body>" tags to the formatted document.

   add_css_tags
	 $parser->add_css_tags(1);
	 $parser->parse_file($file);

       Imports a css stylesheet to the html document and adds additional css tags to url, footnote, and sidebar elements for a nicer display. If
       you don't plan on writing a style.css file (or using the one provided in "examples/"), you probably don't want this option on.
