Aggravated stalking is harrasing calls are not
It seems to depend on what kind of harrasment you were guilty of
I would go and try and get a visa rather than do a visa waiver as you may get to the airport and be refused entry
You really really must read the whole thread before commenting, as it has already been stated what he was convicted of, and why the case of Jose Luis Reyes-Morales, Petitioner, v. Alberto Gonzales, * Attorney General of the United States of America, Respondent., 435 F.3d 937 (8th Cir. 2006) means he can use the VWP.0 -

THe actual definition of aggrevated is interesting as well, moreso if you know that stlaking is grounds for"removability, but not inadmissibility, for convictions for domestic violence, stalking, or violations of protection orders."
Julia K. Doig, Chief Appellate Counsel, Immigration and Naturalization Service
Aggrevated stalking cases have been based around michigan code 750.411i and California PC 646.9 StatutesStalking (aggravated) (a) This Michigan statute provides for a violation if the course of conduct includes the making of one or more “credible threats” against the victim, a member of the victim’s family, or another individual living in the victims household. A “credible threat” means a threat to kill an individual or a threat to inflict physical injury upon another individual that is made in any manner that causes the individual hearing the threat to reasonably fear for his safety. Matter of Ajami, 22 I. & N. Dec. 949 (BIA July13, 1999) (b) a violation of California penal code section 646.9(B) (Stalking)
