I personally attribute the Argonian's success to Black Marsh being just a really crappy place. The Argonians are all adapted to the terrain and know it well, while the Daedra got to eat shit and sink into the muck. Most likely subsequently getting their throats slit and their faces bitten off.

Read the book The Armorer's Challenge to see how Argonian's knowledge of Black Marsh can beat the shit out of anyone that doesn't know Black Marsh...if you're in Black Marsh.
