Try this:

gnokii --monitor 2>&1 | perl moniorData.pl

That will duplicate stderr on stdout.  However, you said that the line was
going to stdout instead of stderr.  If you are somehow processing the
input from stderr instead of that from stdout, you may need to reverse it,
like this:

gnokii --monitor 1>&2 | perl moniorData.pl

....but I doubt that's what you want.  Whenever I process data from a pipe
I'm reading from the program's standard output stream.  Try the first one
first.
