I doubt it. Sidious mainly relied on political manipulation. He is unmatched in that category. Yoda may have been more powerful in ROTS, but I think that changed in the 20 years of darkness.
Vader was the muscle. I know Mace would make better muscle in a theoretical sense, as far as combat abilities (mainly agility) goes, but I think most of Vader's influence came from his image as the uber badass dressed-in-black-armor-officer-choking with the Imperial March playing in the backround . I'm not sure whether Mace would make the better Sith, but likely the more powerful one.
He'd be hella powerful, too. In Dark Rendezvous, Dooku states that Yoda would obliterate Darth Sidious if he used the Dark Side of the Force. Keep in mind that this was stated when Dooku thought of Sidious as really, really powerful (when in fact he wasn't much stronger than Dooku himself!)

That would suck. Sorry, but, they would be the worst Sith ever. A two foot tall muppet with a speech impediment going around and killing everyone would be comical, not intimidating or evil. And him being the more powerful one. Windu would just go around screaming "Evil vaapad master!!!" and kill everyone in sight. He would cost the Empire like half their army just because he wants to look cool. Sidious and Vader are WAY better Sith, no doubt whatsoever.
"So be angry about that!" Dooku said. "Hate! Rage! Despair! Allow yourself, just once, to stop playing at the game of Jedi Knight, and admit to what you have always known; you are alone, and you are great, and when world strikes you it is better to strike back than to turn your cheek. Feel, Yoda! I can feel the darkness rising in you. Here, in this place, be honest for once and feel the truth about yourself."
At this moment Yoda turned, and Dooku gasped. Whether it was the play of the holomonitors, beaming their views of bleak space and distance battles, or some other trick of the light, Yoda's face was deeply hidden in the shadows, mottled black and blue, so that for one terrible instant he looked exactly like Darth Sidious. Or rather, it was Yoda as he might have been, or could yet become: a Yoda gone rotten, a Yoda whose awesome power had been utterly unleashed by the power of the dark side. In a flash Dooku saw how foolish he had been, trying to urge the old Master to the dark side. If Yoda ever turned that way, Sidious himself would be annihilated. The Universe had yet to compehend the kind of evil that a Jedi Knight of nearly nine hundred years could wield."

No, he wouldn't. He'd be stupid. Powerful, yes. Mighty, yes. Intimidating or a physically appealing villain, not even a little. He taught us to do the right thing, that war doesn't make you great, and that size matters not, but as a Sith he would be a bad character.(<- Period)
I think yoda would reduce sidious to nothing as in turn him into nothing. In episode 3 he only loses because he is at the bottom of the senate chamber. If he was on the same level as sidious like at the topof the building or something, yoda would pawn him without any darkside powers at all. Don't forget, sidious runs from yoda then chucks senate pods at him. And like the quote says, dark yoda would annihilated.
