the request method of LWP::UserAgent returns a HTTP::Response object. Even though this isn't explicitly documented in the LWP::UserAgent docs (accessible via perldoc LWP::UserAgent), it seems like a reasonable first guess. You can also find the type of an object by calling ref on it:
use LWP::UserAgent; $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; my $res = $ua->request(GET 'http://www.sn.no/'); print ref($res); returns HTTP::Response perldoc HTTP::Response for the methods available for that class.
