Sorry for not reading all the replies, but here is my take.

Given Imrahil's logic on the topic, I would see an individual orc fighting an individual man or dwarf as pretty balanced. However, the reason that orcs get schreked in smaller numbers in larger combat is infighting. They don't organize well. And even when they have very large numbers of single-minded orcs, they aren't good at holding defensive lines, etc. That is why they do worse than most other races.
