CPAN maintains an enormous Open Source repository of Perl modules, including an OpenGL module for hardware accelerated server-side applications (Perl under mod_perl or ISAPI runs nearly as fast as C/C++, and often is twice as fast as Java).  An updated Perl OpenGL (POGL) binding v0.55 is a release candidate with support for 52 OpenGL extensions.  It has been tested on Windows NT/XP/Vista and Linux Fedora 6, Ubuntu/Dapper. The authors are looking for testers for other platforms prior to submitting this to CPAN. Available via SVN, tarball, ZIP and ActivePerl PPM.
