GIven the state of how Daedric Princes are, there isn't one who is the most powerful or their king. Jyggalag was on the verge of becoming the most powerful with his realm and influence spreading across Oblivion, it actually took the other princes by surprise. As a result, they cursed him with Madness to keep him in check. It shows that if one were to get too powerful or on the verge of it, the others will band together to defeat them or curse them. But there is more of a power struggle within Oblivion between the Princes and they counteract each other, undercutting each other's attempts to gain more power. Ironically, it creates a strange balance between them. But the most respected of all the Daedric Princes between them is most likely Nocturnal, she acts motherly towards them, not only that her realm is based off the Void, the original one before Anu came into existence. This would make her very powerful and she could have been among the first of the Daedric Princes to come into existence after Akatosh became the god of time.

But even still, there isn't a most powerful daedric prince. Not until further notice from the creators of Elder Scrolls.
