Password access except localhost

Hello, I have a Apache2 server on a Debian Squeeze, I have password
protected website, but I need to access to the web without user/pass
just from localhost.

This is my site configuration:

VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin mymail
        ServerName mydomain
        DocumentRoot /var/www/mysite/html
        <Directory />
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride All
        </Directory>
        <Directory /var/www/mysite/html/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AuthType Basic
                AuthName "Restricted Access"
                AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/http-passwords
                Require valid-user
                AllowOverride All
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
        </Directory>

        ErrorLog /var/www/mysite/log/error.log

        # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error,
crit,
        # alert, emerg.
        LogLevel warn

        CustomLog /var/www/mysite/log/access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

How could I configure it?

I want to configure some wget-bash-script to put on cron, so I can not
enter any user/pass.

Is it possible?

Thanks and best regards.
