Alpha and Beta of what?

If you are talking about newer/older versions of stuff, Beta is newer than Alpha.

I was trying to download WiiFlow 2.2 and I saw A Beta and an Alpha

A general classification:

• Alpha versions are always "known unstable" and are more a preview and open a discussion about the general style.
• Beta versions are generally made to find errors. They are close to a release.
• RC (release candidates) are the last test version(s) planned for a final release. The may be perfect.

If unsure use neither alpha or beta, but the release of the previous version.
