mulk now supports metalink:

Multi-connection command line tool for downloading Internet sites with
image filtering and Metalink support. Similar to wget and cURL, but it
manages up to 50 simultaneous and parallel links. Main features are:
HTML code parsing, recursive fetching, Metalink retrieving, segmented
download and image filtering by width and height. It is based on
libcurl, libtidy and libxml2.
