You can generate a 32 or 64 bit config with the "WINEARCH" setting but I haven't found a reason to use a win64 config (nor do I know the differences within wine). I am not sure if a 32 bit OS would make a wine any faster, but probably not noticeably faster.
OT: Wine on Gentoo seems much faster than other distros. I think this is one case where the performance makes a difference. I usually do it with Lord of the Rings Online, which is more intensive than WoW as Michael mentioned to run. Alecks Gates, sent from Android on an HTC G2
