Is there a nice way to ask this???

My coworker (her desk is about 15 feet from mine) Whistles along to the radio CONSTANTLY and SUPER off key. It maddening.

Is there a nice/funny way to make her stop? Its making me insane.

You could always try the "I'm joking but I'm really not joking" approach...

hahahaha... soooo you know I adore you to pieces buttttt the whistling... and you are SO AMAZING at it too, and I'm willing to support you when you go on America's Got Talent but this is just not the proper platform for your awesomeness! soooo until you go in front of Howard and the gang, can you just take it down a notch or two??? For me???

Just say "Please stop".

She may not realize what she was doing.

Could you try to blame it on yourself? Say that you find the radio distracting enough while you're working, but it's even more difficult to concentrate when someone is also whistling/humming/singing along. Sort of an 'it's not you, it's me' way of putting it so she doesn't get insulted.
