Because there is no built rpm for his system, an Oracle Linux of
undisclosed version/arch. Notice that the rpm packages are built for a
specific distribution/version/arch like in the repositories pointed by
you and Graham:

http://iuscommunity.org/packages/
http://codepoint.net/attachments/mod_wsgi/

Meaning an rpm for each of Redhat/Centos/Fedora many versions for i386
and x86_64. That is for a reason. Where it so simple Redhat and Fedora
would just build one only rpm for all versions and architectures.
Fedora now actively maintains 12 rpm sets: Fedora 10/11/12 for i386/
x86_64/ppc/ppc64.
