I think you should be able to do that with Quicktime Pro. (Save the WMV file as a MOV file, then convert it to AVI.)
There are probably other ways to do it as well. I just happen to know about Quicktime Pro.

QuickTime cannot play or export WMV files. If you install the free WMV Player you'll be able to open WMV files in QuickTime, but in order to convert and export anything you'd need to spend $29 for the Player Pro.
