You didn't say you were running an older version of Stata.  In Stata 9 
weights work fine with statsby.  One potential work around for Stata 8 would 
be for you to write your own wrapper command that statsby can call where the 
weights are specified differently (e.g., through an option).  You could also 
just write a loop and post results to a file to accomplish what statsby 
does.
