AFAIK apt doesn't use wget... it uses it's own downloading tools, these
are located in: 
/usr/lib/apt/methods$ ls -la
total 348
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Nov  6 23:32 .
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root         4096 Nov  6 23:32 ..
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        24608 Aug 19  2001 bzip2
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        29928 Aug 19  2001 cdrom
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        17492 Aug 19  2001 copy
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        16696 Aug 19  2001 file

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        71636 Aug 19  2001 http
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        27772 Aug 19  2001 rsh
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        27772 Aug 19  2001 ssh

and the 'http' file is is no wget I can assure you ;)
