It's just a matter of one map():

#!perl
use XML::Generator;

$ref = {
        'dermot' => '10',
        'joe' => '17',
        'rose' => '11',
        'phil' => '13',
        'brian' => '20',
        'andy' => '15',
};

my $gen = XML::Generator->new(':pretty');
my $xml = $gen->users(
     map { $gen->user({id => $ref->{$_}}, $_) } keys %{$ref}
);

print $xml;
__END__
