SYNOPSIS

    use Lingua::AtD;

    # Create a new service proxy
    my $atd = Lingua::AtD->new( {
        host => 'service.afterthedeadline.com',
        port => 80
        throttle => 2,
    });

    # Run spelling and grammar checks. Returns a Lingua::AtD::Response object.
    my $doc_check = $atd->check_document('Text to check.');
    # Loop through reported document errors.
    foreach my $atd_error ($doc_check->get_errors()) {
        # Do something with...
        print "Error string: ", $atd_error->get_string(), "\n";
    }

    # Run only grammar checks. Essentially the same as
    # check_document(), sans spell-check.
    my $grmr_check = $atd->check_grammar('Text to check.');
    # Loop through reported document errors.
    foreach my $atd_error ($grmr_check->get_errors()) {
        # Do something with...
        print "Error string: ", $atd_error->get_string(), "\n";
    }

    # Get statistics on a document. Returns a Lingua::AtD::Scores object.
    my $atd_scores = $atd->stats('Text to check.');
    # Loop through reported document errors.
    foreach my $atd_metric ($atd_scores->get_metrics()) {
        # Do something with...
        print $atd_metric->get_type(), "/", $atd_metric->get_key(),
            " = ", $atd_metric->get_value(), "\n";
    }
