What i found was the longer you wait the harder the Kvatch gate gets. When i start a game do no other quests and go straight to the gate the only enemy's there are lesser scamps its hard but beatable, if i level even a little bit first the enemys are much harder full on Deadra and i don't even get a few steps from the gate before i'm dead. The way the enemys level with you in Oblivion is merciless and as Harkat said remember theres a difficulty slider.
