You can configure Apache for refuse connections with UserAgent "wget",
but note that wget can use any UserAgent (--user-agent option).

SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent "^wget" blacklist
<Location />
  ...
  your options
  ...
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
  Deny from env=blacklist
</Location>

BTW: robots.txt only can stop crawling from "good" crawlers, like
google, yahoo, alexa, etc.
