  That's because there exist no concept of "wireframe" in a raytracer.
A wireframe needs essentially edges, and there are no edges in smooth
surfaces.
  A raytracer handles mathematical surfaces, not polygons. An object made of
polygons can be represented as "wireframe" (by drawing a line for each edge
of the polygon); that's because an object made of polygons has edges. But
POV-Ray doesn't use polygons to represent objects.
