Having read the Trilogy, as well as HP I would have to say that Sauron is by
far worse than Voldemort.
 V is a bad wizard trying to take over and change the world to his image of
what it should be,
BUT he is not nearly as successful as Sauron was in his world. Nor is he as
ruthless, keep in mind that he didn't
appear to want to kill Lily, and she had to force him to do so. Sauron would
have just wiped out the whole town
at the same time, and he also wasn't so forgiving of his followers mistakes
unless he felt he could still gain allot from
keeping them alive. Lastly, there was no one Sauron feared, and nowhere he
wasn't capable of going. It would
appear to me that Dumbledore is, or at least was stronger than V as he was
able to protect the Dursley's and V knows
 he cannot touch Harry when he is with them.
