There are probably better ways, but this is the record of my experiments 
starting with the help file example:

set.seed(1)
dir <- circular(runif(100, 0, 360), units="degrees")
mag <-  rgamma(100, 15)
sample <- data.frame(dir=dir, mag=mag)
 
par(mfrow=c(2,2))
res <- windrose(sample)
#Rotates the data
sample$dir<-sample$dir+90
res <- windrose(sample)
axis.circular(labels=c("E","N","W","S"))
#Overlayed the letter labels but leaves the degree labels

#Read the help file again and now suppress the axes 
res <- windrose(sample,axes=FALSE)
# and correctly(?) position labels
axis.circular(labels=c("E","N","W","S"),tcl.text = -0.1)
