Revan is as strong as you make him in the game. Revan did not go through hundreds and if anything he fought them in groups of three with help. Revan also doesn't loose a limb when a lightsaber cuts through him.
Revan hasn't been seen doing anything in the in-game cutscenes or anything. Really he is a huge unknown.
Confirmed (sith) kills for Revan:
- Dark Jedi master on Taris
- Three Dark Jedi
- Bandon
- Bastila (Defeated)
- Malak
Not much, eh? Still, I'd rank him above RotS Palpatine.
Bandon was the second in a Sith Order of thousands. He was probably the second strongest in the Sith Empire, or at least, he'd have incredible potential.
Bastila was more powerful than Bandon.
Malak was the head honcho in a Sith Empire of thousands where the strongest rule. He would likely be very powerful, probably on Mace's or Dooku's level. He also served as the frontline general in a bloody war. He was more powerful than Council members, because he could control the Star Forge when they could not, and he did best Kavar (leader of the Jedi Guardians, one of the best duelists in the Order). Revan took him down when he had his powers amplified by the Star Forge...
Revan probably has this. Not easily, but he has it.
Sidious would rip him apart using the force. He is far more impressive than Revan. Throwing senate pods around like nothing, being on the same level as Yoda, um... this: http://www.swcomics.com/empire_c.php?i=24&f=3&name=Star_Wars_-_Empire_3 . Sidious has this in the bag.
The fact remains that Revan hasn't shown us anything with the force as powerful as what Sidious has demonstrated.
Well duh. Revan is all gameplay. I'm going by deduction here.
Sidious throws around senate pods with no effort. If Revan had done anything that powerful, canonically, they would have mentioned something.
They did. The Rakata mentions Revan frying their scout party with a large force storm. They were in awe of his power.
Anyways, citing specific examples isn't the only way to prove one powerful. 5 years later, people wouldn't be like "Whoa, Revan was so pwnzors when he fought Bandon! He picked up a swoop bike and tossed it around like a tennis ball!".
But 5 years later, people like Handmaiden, Mandalore, Kreia, etc. were all in awe of his combat abilities.

Actually they said it was like lighting coming down from the sky which could mean a lot of things.
