Happened to me, had to choose a language to write a web crawler in ended up with Python (this was 5 or 6 years ago.)
We got a contractor in who was a Perl guru, he wrote one of the popular web frameworks but even he couldn't put forwards a good case for using it over PHP.
And now in the company my brother works for (a cloud hosting provider) they are currently switching from Perl to Python.
