This is a good example of using eval to evaluate the response from Google as in this
case JSON and perl arrays are represented in the same way! Also uses perl grep to
pick out the matches... I know I really like Perl regexps - but they are just not the
way to go to parse structured strings..!

Your code doesnt work, so i'm not sure what you're trying to do...
If you give me some explanations, i could perhaps help more...

As Relipuj I didn't know what is the specs you want. I've just made your code work cause your regular expression had a little problem.
My fix just fill up the "@matches" array with the words returned by google. First I remove "[","]" and ", then I split the line by ",". This a simple fix and is not a refactor, since refactor implies a working code to begin with.

strict, warnings, working regex, no eval, better variable names.
This could probably stand to have some documentation and some usage information to it.
