And don't think I'm basing what I say about Anakin being more powerful than Dooku solely on Sidious' quote, as we all know I have a lot more than that. And anyways, as we would see in the beginning of ROTS - Anakin beat Dooku when he was fighting for his life, so it does seem Sidious was right. I mean really, at a point, Anakin was even holding back, lol.
The Most Powerful Jedi/Sith/Dark Jedi During the CW:
1.) Jedi Grandmaster Yoda/ Dark Lord of the Sith Sidious
2.) Jedi Grandmaster Yoda/ Dark Lord of the Sith Sidious
3.) Mace Windu
4.) Anakin Skywalker
5.) Count Dooku
6.) Obi-Wan Kenobi
7.) Depa Billaba
8.) General Grievous (EU)
9.) Cin Drallig
10.) Asajj Ventress
11.) Quinlan Vos
12.) Sora Bulq
13.) Luminara Unduli
14.) Plo Koon
15.) Kit Fisto
Top10 Jedi:
1 - Yoda
2 - Windu
3 - Skywalker
4 - Kenobi
5 - Kolar
6 - Fisto
7 - Bulq
8 - Tinn
9 - Ti
10- Drallig
Top10 overall:
1 - Sidious
2 - Yoda
3 - Dooku
4 - Windu
5 - Skywalker
6 - Kenobi
7 - Ventress
8 - Kolar
9 - Fisto
10- Bulq
And now - why Dooku and Yoda above Windu? Databank And Wookiepedia would answer:
"It was said only two opponents ever bested him -- Yoda, and Dooku."
"Only Masters Yoda and Mace Windu were considered to have fought on equal terms with him."
"It was said that the only opponents with a chance to out spar him were Yoda and Count Dooku. "
"Along with Yoda, Dooku was one of only two Jedi who were known to have bested Mace Windu at sparring, and during the time of the Confederacy Crisis, it was said that aside from Yoda, only Windu would have been his equal on neutral ground." - starwars.wikia.com
So - its a prove.
And something about Kolar:
Mace Windu himself, considered one of the greatest duelists in the Order's history, found Kolar's abilities considerable. The Jedi Council felt that Windu and Kolar alone would provide a significant counter to Darth Sidious were he to reveal himself. - starwars.wikia.com

and look what happened to kolar when he did meet Sidious
Yes - that's why Sidious is top 1 and Kolar top 8
In fact noone jedi - exept Yoda, Mace, Anakin and probably Sora and Depa - can fight with Sidious...
And imho:
Vaapad is better vs Palpatine's Juyo, but not vs jedi forms like Makashi, Shi-cho, Djem So or Soresu... Thats why Agen is above Sora

Vaapad > all forms when it's BMF Windu swinging the lightsaber. Haters!
