In the FAQ section (http://wpkg.org/index.php/FAQ) the first question is
"How can I script installation of packages if they can't be installed
quietly, without user intervention?"
the answer given is "There are some ways to do it. You can find a good
description and a handful of examples on this page."
But the examples don't have an example of this... or at least it's not
obvious.
I saw the silent installer for Quicktime, but the installer still
requires user interaction.

It really says so? :)
Could you point me where exactly, it's not true, if it's in the wiki, it
needs to be fixed.
For example, I want to use WPKG to install iTunes and Quicktime.
However, the iTunes installer prompts you "To get started, click
Next," accept the license, etc...
Can this be done with WPKG? Maybe in tandem with AutoIT? I'd rather
keep it as simple as possible though.
Maybe with AutoIT, but in reality I doubt it.
Mostly programs have some "hidden" silent, command line options.
Sometimes it's just hard to know which one, as there is no standard here.
For Quicktime, you can find a silent installer in the wiki:

For iTunes, you'll have to search the web I guess.
