The Federation (and allies) that took on the Dominion towards the end of DS9 ... so that includes the Klingons, Romulans and Ferengi. They will be at full strength (meaning they aren't suffering the effects of a long term war just being fought)
Can they stop Annihilus' fleet?
There are Star Trek comics and, as far as I know, no cross genre Vs forums, so don't get all close-happy about this.

I've never seen one of them blow up a planet, but it has been said that Galaxy class ships had the firepower to destroy one (though at the time I assumed they meant blowing up everything on the surface rather than making the planet explode)
Gender: Male Location: Hiding from The Doctor, shhhh.....
I'm giving this to the Feds for one reason. The Federation has proved this in every war they've ever fought. Screw the Borg, the Federation is the king of adapting to and countering exotic threats. They always come up with some crazy scientific or tactical solution given enough time. And the bugs weren't that tough. The big guns are problemactic, but given enough time, the Federation scientists will find a way to win.

Billions of Ships vs the Federation? The Wave threatened to destroy all of the universe.... I'll give you two reasons why they would devour the Feds, and their little allies.
Aegis & Tenebrous. Oh! and yes they were part of the Annihilation wave.
Even so, the bugs were in the billions, this wasn't some simple armada that was trying to conquer the universe. The Nova corps were about as powerful as the Federation alone. Even with the help of some very powerful Heralds (each could destroy a planet by themselves) they were unable to do much more than slow the Wave.
Annihilus had Queens that continuously bolstered his ranks, so for every ship the Federation and Allies destroyed 3 more would reappear. However the Feds and allies, would not have such a luxury, and would in time be destroyed. This is not to count out the fact that Annihilus had super powered shock troops of his own, from planets in the negative zone that were conquered.
I'd actually give it to the Federation. While the A Wave is very destructive, the Federation and their allies have far superior technological ingenuity. They also have Borg tech via the experiences of the Voyager Crew/7 of 9 and Icheb, as well as the bio weaponry nano tech used against Species 8472.
Oh, and just in case someone calls shenanigans, the story of Voyager runs concurrently with the events of DS9 though the show aired afterwards. The Dominion War was occurring as Voyager made it back to the Alpha Quadrant, and the massacre of the Maquis by the Dominion and Cardassians during the war was a plot point in the later seasons.
