In rough terms it would require a Widget with AJAX enabled, a WidgetController with an action to output the .vcf and finally using<f:widget.link action="theDownloadAction" ajax="TRUE">link to file</f:widget.link>  inside the template file for the Widget. This is a more complex solution but it gets around the typeNum issue.

of course. And additionally you should also send the correct response 
headers in the action or combined with your PAGE-TS-Settings:

Something like:
$this->response->setHeader('Content-Disposition', 'attachment; 
filename="' . $fileName . '.vcf"');
$this->response->setHeader('Content-Length', strlen($vCardString));
$this->response->setHeader('Connection', 'close');
