Star Wars now have two continuities: Legends and Canon
In Canon continuity, following are the strongest:
- Father
- Son*
- Daughter*
*Son and Daughter are equally strong.

Mr. Leland Chee also stated on Twitter that Father is the strongest Force-user of the Star Wars mythos.*
*Mr. Chee might be considering only Canon continuity for rankings since he did not respond to my query concerning this topic.
In Legends continuity, their are contradictions or different school of thoughts concerning this subject at official capacity.
One school of thought promoted Darth Sidious as the most powerful Sith Lord in the galactic history and practitioner of dark side in general until more super-strong characters had been introduced such as Abeloth, Son, and Emperor Vitiate.
BioWare relentlessly promotes Emperor Vitiate as the most powerful Force-user in galactic history since 2011. You can learn more from here: http://www.comicvine.com/forums/gen-discussion-1/emperor-vitiate-respect-thread-1556713/
Someone, at official capacity, promoted Darth Plagueis as the most powerful Sith Lord in galactic history in 2012, but this was on the backcover of a novel of the referred character.
Mr. George Lucas promoted Anakin Skywalker as having the highest potential among the Force-users, but he did not concentrate much on developments in Legends continuity in general. Mr. Lucas also hyped Luke Skywalker in similar manner once. However, Mr. Lucas have sold the rights of Star Wars to Disney and the latter company seems to have revisited the hype of Anakin Skywalker for the Canon continuity: http://www.starwars.com/databank/anakin-skywalker
