It's the next step after beta - ie it's release quality, but hasn't been in
release that long.  Therefore it's probably not been deployed in production
by that many people.

Bear in mind that even alpha versions have undergone and completely passed
the full set of regression tests.

After a period of time in gamma, where bug reports have tailed off, it is
finally called "Stable".

As a rough comparison, check the following table

Microsoft Label               MySQL label
version 1.0                   alpha
Version 2.1a                  beta
Version 3.5c                  gamma
Version XP Pro .NET SP19        stable
