You cannot download the emulator separately from the SDK, for any platform, for any version of Android.

Modern update (mid-year 2013):

You can install Android inside a VirtualBox instance on your PC (Linux, Mac, Windows)

Steps:

1. Download VirtualBox
2. Download the free & open source Android OS ISO image.
3. Install VirtualBox
4. Create new virtual machine with RAM, Hard Drive, etc.
5. Choose the Android ISO for CD-ROM drive
6. Start the virtual machine and follow on-screen instructions to install the OS.

Actually there is an option for a standalone Android Simulator, here it is:

Hope this helps!

There is also a program called Jar of Beans created by a member of the XDA forum. http://code.google.com/p/jar-of-beans/

Its basically a Android Jelly Bean,

Hope it helps! its about 200MB in size.

I think this question needs an update :) Here is an answer from 10/2018.

1. Bluestacks
2. MeMu
3. Genymotion
4. Andy
5. Droid4X
6. Nox
7. Windroy
8. AMIDuOS
9. Xamarin Android Player
10. Remix OS Player

Well the android SDK contains an emulator and you can install it on Windows.

I don't think you can run an emulator without its supporting avd and kernal. If you want to check you can try pasting the emultor.exe somewhere in your drive create a AVD and see if you are able to start the emulator from the command prompt.

Try Windroy, which is a free full port of Android to Windows.
