Adding days is simply adding multiples of 86400, 1 for each day, to the epoch time, then converting to m/d/y format using any routine you like.

Might also want to check the modules in CPAN. DateTime looks like a likely candidate, and if not I am sure there is something there to manipulate time and dates.
Such as Date::Calc and Date::Manip. Date::Manip is probably the more capable of the two (depending on how you define capable), but it's slower as well, as it's written entirely in Perl. Date::Calc uses a C library for speed, but doesn't do as much as Date::Manip.
