mencoder original.avi -oac mp3lame -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=wmv1:vbitrate=500 -o new-version-of-movie.wmv

Ran it from a remote shell on one of my movies and it did appear to 
start converting to wmv:

MP3 audio selected.
VDec: vo config request - 624 x 464 (preferred colorspace: Planar YV12)
VDec: using Planar YV12 as output csp (no 0)
Movie-Aspect is 1.34:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect.
videocodec: libavcodec (624x464 fourcc=31564d57 [WMV1])
