Try the following:
->You must set the executable-flag of the counter.cgi (use "chmod +x
counter.cgi).
->is perl really in the "/usr/bin" - directory ?
->if the file comes from a DOS/Windows-OS there is often a "CR/LF" at the
end of the lines. In FreeBSD there have to be ONLY the "CR". Delete the
first two lines and write it new (with a FreeBSD-Editor). Sometimes
you see the "LF" in the editor as a "^M", then delete the "^M".
Hope it helps
