I apologize for not haveing references, but I seem to recall that when the wizards came over they had to "relearn" and "reaquaint" themselves to the wisdom and knowledge of the world. If this is true, it would seem that regardless of there inherent power ranks, proper study and practice would have to be actualized for them to realize their wizard potential. Gandalf was the only wizard to pursue that end properly, that is why he was the most powerful wizard in the end. while Radagast may have been the inherently weakest wizard, his true weakness came from a diversion from pupose. Some have said that perhaps Radagast was not foresaking his purpose being that the birds and plants needed to be cared for as well, but I would argue that his interest was still misapportioned.
gotta go, maybe more later.
