The only problem i see here is the weak links on the jedi team. If luke and jacen had guys like yoda or windu helping them i would give the fight to them, this way, i think the sith may win. Also, depends a bit on nihilus' powers. If he can use his force drain he could wipe them all out (except luke maybe, since he had that shield against force drain). But this way he would be alone against 4 tough guys... Impossible to win i say, lol

If this is NJO/DN Luke, then he is easily the most powerful and talented person here, and can defeat any of the Sith here. Sion is a nonfactor here, and would easily be incapacitated by Luke. Nihilus's strength lies in his drain - and Luke can loop in and out of the Force (if I recall) and would slay Nihilus. Revan and Bane would be the biggest problems, but Luke could comfortably beat any of them, either.
Mara and Jaina are the weak links here, but either one of them could match Sion (who is not a powerhouse when compared to Luke), and aside from Nihilus's drain - I'm sure they could handle him in melee combat, either.
If the Sith win, it's going to be very, very hard.
I think Sion's underrated. Sure, he's mostly unknown, but logic points to him being a powerhouse. I mean, no weakling would ever be able to do what Sion could; he could make himself practically invincible, physically speaking, and that's gotta require some pretty awesome strength. I'd say he'd easily be above Mara or Jaina, but probably not quite on Jacen's level, and clearly not on Luke's.
Nihilus throws this completely in the Siths' favor. Right off the bat, he could drain Mara and Jaina dry, as we've seen that he can use this power by simply extending his hand. I'd argue that he could do the same to Jacen as well, but for the sake of argument I'll say he somehow can't. And if Luke magically knows how to escape Nihilus' attack before he sees it, I suppose he could survive as well. Now, as good as they are, Luke and Jacen aren't defeating four of the more powerful Sith Lords in history at once - not on their best day. Sion is likely the weak link in his team, but with prodigies like Revan and Bane on his team, as well as the killing machine that is Nihilus, he should be able to take Jacen out of the fight. Whether or not he dies is inconsequential, although it should be likely. Alone, against these four - or maybe three - Luke is going to die. Period.
That being the scenario in favor the Jedi, here's the more probable one - Nihilus just drains all of them as soon as the fight starts, unless Luke and Jacen know of his nature beforehand, and actually manage to set up their defenses before he can so much as raise his hand.
Luke, however, is probably fully capable of circumventing the ability through his knowledge of the Fallanassi and 'circumventing' the force. Luke, however, is more than capable of defeating Nihilus off the bat, and Sion as well, with much superior speed and ability. That's another scenarion in Jedi favor. Jacen is also, very probably above any of the Sith, but Jaina an Mara's presence are extreme weak links.
