I don't believe the driver "wi" has this capabilities? Corrections welcome!
I use the utility prism2ctl that comes with bsd-airtools to set up monitor mode.
Using Kismet under FreeBSD in monitor mode creates a lot of bogus detections from the local wi interface in monitor mode as well. But still does detect other wireless traffic.
