<xsl:param>  is only for getting parameters in a template called
with <xsl:with-param>  arguments.

If you're trying to pass parameters from your Perl code to the stylesheet, try 
something like this:

Within the Perl code:

  my $xslt = XML::LibXSLT-> new() or
    die "Can't create XML::LibXSLT object.";

  my $stylesheet = $xslt-> parse_stylesheet_file('stylesheet.xsl') or
    die "Can't parse stylesheet.";

  my @xsltParams = ();
  push @xsltParams, ('foo', 'some-value');
  push @xsltParams, ('bar', 'some-other-value');
  my $result = $stylesheet-> transform_file('document.xml', @xsltParams);

Within the stylesheet:

  <xsl:text> Value of foo is </xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="$foo"/>
  <xsl:text> Value of bar is </xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="$bar"/>
