Unless you have a different meaning of weighted average to me, I don't
think you do. AFAIK this would produce exactly the same result as what
your code does:

state_function(state,weight,value)
  state[0] = state[0]+weight
  state[1] = state[1]+weight*value

final_function(state)
  return state[1]/state[0]

The state[0] is the same as your _sumedWeight. Because it's a constant in
the second loop you can do the division after. state[1] is your
_sumedWxV times _sumedWeight.

Have a nice day,
