If by "without any data" you mean with empty POST data, use
`--post-data=""'. But that will send 0 Content-Length and the usual
Content-Type. As always, you can customize both headers using the
`--header' option, but I don't think you can remove them entirely.
Maybe the `--header' syntax could be extended so that `--header=NAME'
(note lack of trailing colon -- currently illegal) could be used to
delete the generated header from the HTTP request.

Because Wget tries to reuse the same connection for multiple requests.
For example, the server can respond with a redirection, which would
require a new request, best carried out on the same connection. (Plus,
the code at that point doesn't have the information that it is the last
request that will be run.)
