"Among those of his servants that have names the greatest was that spirit that the Eldar called Sauron, or Gorthaur the Cruel."
-The Valaquenta
Also, when Morgoth left Angband to ensnare the newly awakened Men, Sauron was the one left behind in command to fight the war.
I think it's pretty safe to say that Sauron was greater and higher ranking than the Balrogs.
However, I completely agree that a Balrog could turn your average Nazgul into a little pile of ashes.
