Assuming you've got the columns "customer_id" and "username" in your
database, you could do something like:
my $row = $sth->fetchrow_hashref;
my $cust_id = $row->{customer_id};
my $username = $row->{username};
Though, as usual, there are a whole bunch of different ways of doing it,
depending on the specifics of what you're trying to do.
