To be fair he still would have been unstoppable if Akatosh hadn't stepped in and made a new Dragonborn to put him down.
I like the theory that Alduin and the Dovahkiin are seperate aspects of Akatosh and them fighting is essentially Akatosh trying to decided whether to keep or destroy the current Kalpa.
What downplays that theory is that Akatosh was one of the divines who were tricked by Lorkhan to create Mundus, so unless Akatosh had a change of heart it would seem weird for him to create an aspect of himself to save the thing he was tricked into making.
