Instead of using masses of hash keys of the sort "google_results_title_<n>,
you should add an additional dimension in the result data structure, e.g.
$Scratch->{google_results_title}->[1]=..., not
$Scratch->{google_results_title_1} =...
But since you only want to collect urls and their title, why not simply use a
hash for that:
foreach my $result (@{$results->{resultElements}}) {
$Scratch->{ $result->{URL} } = $result->{title}
# Or, if neccessary:
#$Scratch->{google_results}->{ $result->{URL} } = $result->{title}
}
Afterwards, you can access the titles with a lookup of the url.
