This worked on my Mac using the examples (META.yml) they posted on the perldoc.

mbp:Development dj_goku$ cat parse_cpan_meta.pl
use Parse::CPAN::Meta;
    
my $distmeta = Parse::CPAN::Meta->load_file('META.yml');
    
    # Reading properties
my $name     = $distmeta->{name};
my $version  = $distmeta->{version};
my $homepage = $distmeta->{resources}{homepage};

print $name, $version, $homepage;
mbp:Development dj_goku$ cat META.yml
---
   name: My-Distribution
   version: 1.23
   resources:
      homepage: "http://example.com/dist/My-Distribution";
mbp:Development dj_goku$ perl -v

This is perl 5, version 14, subversion 1 (v5.14.1) built for 
darwin-thread-multi-2level
