Maybe a difference in proportions, not means, with aweights? See
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/stat/logit.html or try
glm p byvar [aw=w], family(binomial) link(logit) robust
test byvar
where byvar is the dummy marking which group an obs comes from.

...but probably something semiparametric is better. Where do these
data come from?

Usually, from what I can gather, the ttest command assumes that the standard error for each observation is 0. Is there any way that I can tell STATA, instead, that each observation has a different standard error, which I specify in a second variable?
