file access dates

Hi, I am new to perl, and I want to search a root directory and find
files that have not been accessed within the last 6 months. I have
found that the stat function returns an array of file info. Could
someone please tell me which element the last accessed date is? Also
if there is a better way than using stat, please point me in the right
direction.

Thanks in advance,
Chris
