Use the WebAdministration module that comes with PowerShell 2.0:

Import-Module WebAdministration
New-WebVirtualDirectory -Site "Default Web Site" -Name ContosoVDir `
                        -PhysicalPath c:\inetpub\contoso

If you copy/paste this make sure there is no additional whitespace after the line continuation character - (`).
