not from the log output you just showed, id look back further on the 
webserver logs, and also take a look on other running processes on your 
server, ps auxf ...

other good tools to find installed rootkits:

rkhunter (youll find that in the ports collection, at least on a 5.3)
sockstat.c (easy to find via google)
and have a close look into your /proc fs, in case you have a procfs mounted.

also check your webserver for world writeable directories, and for cross site 
scripting problems, that wget was called from the webserver looks like some 
kind of bug in a script, that is used by a webpage, that the attacker tried 
to use...
