The Daedra took no part in Creation, whereas Lorkhan did. Although he is rather ambiguous, a unique case, he is certainly not a Daedra. Lorkhan is markedly Padomaic, but that doesn't necessarily make him Daedric (considering not all Daedra are Padomaic, looking at Jygallag). It seems odd that they would think his purpose to be to destroy the Aurbis, when Mundus was his idea, and the role is usually filled by Alduin/Satakal/etc. The Dark Brotherhood do hold some peculiar ideals which aren't necessarily true, though.
