Use wget in cron with no output

When you use wget in a cron to run a php script at a specific interval the home directory of the user this cron is running as is filled with files containing the output.
You can make cron output everything to stdout to make this stop:
/usr/bin/wget -O - -q http://www.whatever.com/cron.php
