These instructions appear to come from the website that must not be named (its existence is one of the reasons why the name was changed to MacPorts).

You probably need to run

sudo port selfupdate

followed by

sudo port install jam

Although if your firewall blocks your connection to the MacPorts rsync server, this will not work, and you'll need to refer to our FAQ:
