Just download the msi (script is available to regenerate yourself) and

Sorry I didn't explain what I'm looking for exactly.
I've packages built by bdist_wininst, Is there any way for install them
silently?
Or is there any way for convert them to another format (ex. msi) in that
way I can install them silently.
If you can get the source (specifically including the setup.py
which I don't think is included in the wininst .zip) then you
can use that to build an msi:
python setup.py bdist_msi
which you can then manage via the usual msiexec switches.
It's often available from the same source as the wininst .exe
and/or from the project's code repository. If not, you're down
to reverse-engineering a suitable setup.py. For many projects
this is pretty simple.
