You can try using vitrite instead:
http://www.vanmiddlesworth.org/vitrite

With that you can set the transparency for *any* window in Windows
(not only rxvt). You can set the transparency from 0 to 9 with just a
ctrl+shift+[0-9]. really simple app, and very useful when you have a
large number of widows open at the same time.
