Perfect Strike (Combat)

When wielding a monk weapon, your attacks can be extremely precise.

Prerequisites: Dex 13, Wis 13, Improved Unarmed Strike, base attack bonus +8.

Benefit: You must declare that you are using this feat before you make your attack roll (thus a failed attack roll ruins the attempt). You must use one of the following weapons to make the attack: kama, nunchaku, quarterstaff, sai, and siangham. You can roll your attack roll twice and take the higher result. If one of these rolls is a critical threat, the other roll is used as your confirmation roll (your choice if they are both critical threats). You may attempt a perfect attack once per day for every four levels you have attained (but see Special), and no more than once per round.

Special: A weapon master monk or zen archer monk receives Perfect Strike as a bonus feat at 1st level, even if he does not meet the prerequisites. A monk may attempt an perfect strike attack a number of times per day equal to his monk level, plus one more time per day for every four levels he has in classes other than monk.

So, I have a Zen Archer at third level. I can attempt perfect strike 3x per day. Can I attempt Perfect Strike as part of a Flurry of Blows with my bow, or is one Perfect Strike a standard action?

I understand that I cannot attempt Perfect Strike with both arrows in the flurry, since I can only attempt Perfect Strike once per round.

It doesn't indicate that Perfect Strike is its own action, so you can attempt it any time you make an attack roll (before you roll), only no more than once per round maximum, and only 'X' times per day.
