There is no separate build available for 64-bit windows, use 
32-bit one, it should work (with usual limitations, see 
http://nginx.org/en/docs/windows.html).

Alternatively, you may build it yourself as specified here:

http://nginx.org/en/docs/howto_build_on_win32.html

Or use your favorite virtual machine to run nginx under your 
favorite *nix variant.
