I would believe that our Dovahkiin would have a fairly legitimate claim to the Throne. My reasoning being, that he has dragon blood in him, which in all technicality came from Akatosh. Note that the Spetims had Alatosh's blood in them. This would give our Dovahkiin a pretty powerful claim. It would also be supported if the Dovahkiin joined the Legion and helped put down the rebellion.
