Well it depend on how much end there is. Ill quote myself from another thread...

"To start off...

we know alduin has aten the world befor, by the measure of kulpas even bieng made.

The gods would want to stop him except mehrunes maybe, yet they have failed to.

When we fight him, we win when the divines havent. all we have that they dont is dragonrend

My conclusion from that is he is a god, entertwined with akatosh. I think he is a aspect of akatosh that wants to destroy, and end time. Much like barbus and calavicus vile(barbus bieng the side that dosent want to cheat mortals or something I forget) but wither way there opisits cause from those three facts we know hes a god who gains power from whatever they represent. since he represents end, I think once time gets too messed up(Dragon breaks mostly) he gets more powerfull. And since he did not contribute to nirn, hes a daedra but without a plane, further supporting my claim hes a aspect of akatosh. Thats theory number 1 of what akatosh is. Theory number 2 is that he is jyggolath and shegorath; one destroying what the other one has build the other recreating it. everytime that happens its a kulpa, perfect since. But supposably alduin has lived for quite a while without attempting to end the kulpa, so thats ones almost dispelled, thought I'd mention it tho

Of course how hes an aspect or a "jyggolath" would take a strange theory to explain, not that Bethesda couldent/hasnt."-Me

So to awnser your question, most of the time he wouldent be strong enought to beat a aedra. but if its near the end of the kulpa, he is stong enought to defy the wishes of many daedras and aedras. if they cant stop him, then I guess he might be strong enough. then again even when its not, he can summon meteor showers, and revive ohhh at least 50 dragons(Most likely more, that just how many I encountered in my skyrim game) so maybe. but since power isnt measured in units(at least for gods) we cant know for sure.
