[bounce 
href=|http://www.example.com/path/to/external/cgi?[calc]join('&',map("$_=$Values->{$_}",keys 
  %$Values))[/calc]|]

...or something similar should do it.  Keep in mind that this will pass 
*all* your values to the cgi script and will also expose them to the 
browser so you may want to limit them to a subset of just the values you 
want which you can do by substituting a list of the form names for keys 
%$Values:

[bounce 
href=|http://www.example.com/path/to/external/cgi?[calc]join('&',map("$_=$Values->{$_}",('name1','name2','name3')))[/calc]|]

Note that the above is off the cuff, none of it is tried or tested.
