Haskell:

import Data.Char (toLower, toUpper)
import Control.Applicative

toWeirdCase :: String -> String
toWeirdCase = unwords . map weirdifier . words
              where weirdifier = getZipList
                               . (ZipList [if even i then toUpper else toLower | i <- [0..]] <*>)
                               . ZipList

I used applicative functors here mostly for fun. I think it looks nicer to define weirdifier as

weirdifier = zipWith (\i -> if even i then toUpper else toLower) [0..]
