Well, the weighted scores would add up to the weighted number of games. A recent 1-0 plus an old 0-w adds up to 1+w games, so the player averages will be 1/(1+w) and w/(1+w). When your rating calculation requires the average opponent rating, you will have to weight that average in the same way, of course.
