Thank you for considering me as one of your recommenders for {program/job}. However, since I won't be able to write you a very strong recommendation letter, it is my opinion that you should seek out a different resource.
At this time, the only qualities I will be able to speak to are {qualities, such as position title, responsibilities, class taken, grade earned, etc.}. I hope you understand that there are certainly other people in {department/school} who are more qualified to speak to your accomplishments in a stronger fashion.
Thank you for your consideration, and best of luck.
