Greetings,

You could possible fill in the background by implementing –
tableView:willDisplayCell:forTableColumn:row: in the NSTableView's
delegate.

i.e.:

- (void)tableView:(NSTableView *)aTableView willDisplayCell:(id)aCell
        forTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)aTableColumn row:(int)aRowIndex
{
    if ( aRowIndex % 2 == 0 )
    {
        NSColor *bgColor = [NSColor colorWithCalibratedRed:0.5
                                                      green:0.5
                                                      blue:0.5
                                                      alpha:1.0];
        [aCell setDrawsBackground:YES];
        [aCell setBackgroundColor:bgColor];
   }
}
