So, IMO i really recommend my fellow Perl's programmers to give a look to CGI::Application as well as to the Persistent module( http://www.bigsnow.org/persistent ) They are 2 great modules to build "real world" web applications.

But the mailing list for C::A is popular. I have about a thousand messages archived since last year. Maybe it is just that casual programmers are less likely to program in Java. And IMO C::A appeals to serious programmers. I used perl for more than a year as a utility. I didn't do any multiple screen apps until just recently. C::A is also OO and that is a turn off for many.
