I haven't, but I had a quick look around and found; "curl is basically made to do single-shot transfers of data. It transfers just the URLs that the user specifies, and does not contain any recursive downloading logic nor any sort of HTML parser." (from here)
Which could be the main problem. What I've done above relies on the recursive behaviour of wget. Not that you can't, but it might take more scripting on your side to get similar behaviour.
If you still want to try wget without the VirtualBox/Linux vm setup, maybe see if this binary is useful/still around? http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/wget-mac/

Or try building from source (not as scary as it sounds): http://www.hacksparrow.com/how-to-install-wget-on-your-mac.html
Hope something works!
