Do you want to capture the HTTP requests and their status?
Try this:

Code:

wget filename_to_get 2>&1|egrep "HTTP|Length|saved"

This will get you your files. You need to do the 2>&1 so that the stderr, where wget writes all this info is routed to stdout. This in turn is piped to the egrep which gives you your output.
