Well, you must remember that the Prodigal Sons (Ahriman and two dozen or so other powerful sorcerers) actually managed to blast into the webway, and came within sight of the Black library. The "halls" of the webway were reportedly clogged with the corpses of harlequins before the Sons were forced to retreat. In the process, they actually broke a webway channel, isolating an entire section of the webway. Let's say there are 200-300 sorcerers left alive in the TS. If two dozen can break into the webway, then 250 might well be enough to actually enter the black library. As for Abbadon vs Ahriman, I think that Abbadon is being underestimated. He is incredibly powerful, blessed by all four chaos gods and wielding a mighty daemon weapon. Any of the Daemon primarchs could defeat him, (is Magnus affected by the Rubric?) But Abbadon is the mightyest "mortal" servant of chaos. Ahriman would definetly put up a fight, maybe even forcing the despoiler to retreat, but I don't think he has the pure power to slay him.
