the syntax is
wget http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/file.zip

wget ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/file.zip

same thing? 
thereis an rpm available at:

ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/SuSE-Linux/i386/6.3/suse/n1/wget.rpm

or if you're on debian,
#apt-get install wget


or you can grab sources from GNU :

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/
