I think the documentation would surely benefit from an "examples"
section. Writing there that example with "virtual host" keywords
somewhere would allow users to find it promptly.
The --header section is clear enough, it's just you have to know what
you are looking for. :-)
Thanks for this great tool!

If you really believe that "www.example.com" is a virtual server, I
suggest to specify the host with "--header" command line option, as
follows:
wget http://1.1.1.1/ --header 'Host: www.example.com'
wget http://2.2.2.2/ --header 'Host: www.example.com'
That is exactly the way to do it, and has worked perfectly for me in the
past (in fact, supporting this was an important use case when the
--header feature was last revamped). Improvements as to how to make
this more apparent in the manual would be most welcome.
