ALAC is Apple Lossless compression. And you can encode it using iTunes easily enough. However, since iTunes can't read your WAVPack files directly, you can use foobar2000 and iTunesEncode as a CLI encoder. foobar will read the WAVPack files, pass them over to iTunesEncode, which will use iTunes to encode them however you like.
