RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^b/([w]+) http://www.anothersite.org/b/w/$1 [L,NC]

That should do it :)

You can rewrite outside of your document root, but you can redirect (it will change the URL in the browser's address bar):

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/?b/w/(.*)$ http://www.anothersite.org/b/w/$1 [R=301,L]

or

Redirect 301 /b/w/ http://www.anothersite.org/b/w/

If you need the address bar to stay the same, you can use mod_proxy if that's enabled:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/?b/w/(.*)$ http://www.anothersite.org/b/w/$1 [P,L]

Or if you have access to the server or vhost config, just create an alias:

Alias /b/w/ /var/www/www.anothersite.org/b/w/

Or worst case, just symlink /var/www/www.example.org/b/w/ to /var/www/www.anothersite.org/b/w/
