Subtracting 86400 from the time will work most of the time, but not all of the time. If you need accuracy, use a module like DateTime:

 perl Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
use DateTime;
my $yesterday = DateTime->now->subtract( days => 1 );
use DateTime;
my $yesterday = DateTime->now->subtract( days => 1 );
