DW Perl module client

Does LJ::Simple work reliably with Dreamwidth? If not, is there a comparable perl module that does? (I'd rather rely on someone else's testing than conduct my own, which is likely to be more slipshod)

Also (and relatedly), is there a way that given a DW entry that's been either imported from, or crossposted to, LJ, I can get (programmatically) the ID or URL of the LJ entry, without resorting to comparing timestamps and post contents?

ETA: if there's no Perl thing suitable, does anyone have any ideas for Java packages that would do the same?

(x-posted from [community profile] perl, where I got suggestions to try here)

ETA: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~adamb/dw-thataway.pl.txt is the current state of the script. I've tested it on a small test journal and it seems to do what it's supposed to do. If anyone's brave enough to test it on real-world data and let me have any bug reports, that'd be wonderful.

The xpost details (when thawed) seem to be keyed on an integer that's presumably the id of the account being used. Is there a way of finding which account goes with which integer?
