My point was that wget is only designed to download files given an url. If you would read the man pages for wget you see:

GNU Wget is a free utility for non-interactive download of files from the Web.

It is not design to run .rpm-files itself, therefore it is not designed to upgrade/install software. Just downloading files.
And all my downloads with wget has always gone to the dir where I have sent the command. After you have followed mhallbiai's suggestions please tell me where you found the downloads, since I am curious.
