*** assuming n1, n2, m1, m2, N are contained in the identically named scalars

gen wgt = scalar(n1)/10 if stratum==1
replace wgt = scalar(n2)/8 if stratum==2
assert !missing(wgt)
* cluster size does not matter

*** option 1: poststrata
gen pstrata = 1
gen popsize = scalar(N)
svyset cluster [pw=wgt], strata( stratum ) poststrata( pstrata )
postweight( popsize )

*** option 2: rescale weights
sum wgt
generate wgt2 = wgt*scalar(N)/r(sum)
svyset cluster [pw=wgt2], strata( stratum )
