Depending on what you want to do Gtk2::TrayIcon may suit your needs.
It acts as a container for widgets in the Notification Area.  I use
the following code to turn my vpn connection on and off.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use Gtk2::TrayIcon;

Gtk2->init;

my $current;
if (grep { /vpnc/ } `ps -ef`) {
        $current = 'connect';
} else {
        $current = 'disconnect';
}

my $size    = 'small-toolbar';
my $icon    = Gtk2::TrayIcon->new("vpn control");
my $ev      = Gtk2::EventBox->new;
my $img     = Gtk2::Image->new_from_stock("gtk-$current", $size);

$icon->add($ev);
$ev->add($img);
$ev->signal_connect('button_release_event', sub {
        if ($current eq 'connect') {
                $current = 'disconnect';
                system "gksudo vpnc-disconnect";
        } else {
                $current = 'connect';
                system "gksudo vpnc /home/cowens/.vpn.conf";
        }
        $img->set_from_stock("gtk-$current", $size);
});

$icon->show_all;

Gtk2->main;
