The process is much simpler that you may think. You don't need to call the modules. you can do it lik this.
opendir DIR, "/home";
@alldirectories = readdir DIR;
foreach $directory(@alldirectories) {
$diskusage = `du -s $directory`;
$totalusage = ($totalusage + $diskusage);
$diskusage = "";
}
if ($totalusage > $maxspace){&emailme;}
Just run that from a cron file or incorporate that into a perl server monitring script that runs at some interval.

I figure you can set up the email part. Just be careful of overhead I am not sure how much the summary switch uses. But the summary will allow you to identify the user that is the biggest offendor.
