It's telling you authorization failed.. as in you need to give it a
username and password.

Check the man page:
$ man wget

You should see descriptions for --user= and --password= options.

Regarding CGI, that is just server-side processing. Unless you are
talking about POST form submissions, CGI's will work fine via wget.
For the more complex stuff you'll want to read up on curl. (man curl)
