You put Hapans twice. :P

Well, as of TESB (which is some time before the NJO) the Mining Guild from the AOTC is still around. It's no stretch of the imagination to assume that they still exist by the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Other than that, I think you got them all.

The Ssi-ruuk, the semi-independant Corieallains, the Hutt's sector, and the Tion Cluster are all seperte from the Republic.

The Chiss aren't aligned with anyone either, although whether they count as a power or not is debatable.

They have no nav computers, nothing bigger then a frigate and are xenophobic.

Furtheremore as of the lastest NJO books the Hutts have cease to exist as a major power.

Corporate Sector
The Corporate Sector is one Sector. While her owners arguably are massive parts of the GFFA's economy, the sector itself does not have enormous galactic influence.

The Hapans are pretty backward and insular. Their fleet is pretty small. It would've been a big help back when the New Republic needed all the ships they could get to take pressure off the front, but they were only minor setbacks during the Invasion when they suffered major losses.

The Hutts are destroyed.

The Imperial Remnant is half-conquered and while politically significant, they were only militarily and economically important in proportion to their size--however, eight sectors is still eight sectors out of thousands.

And the New Republic ended at Cal Omas' election at Mon Calamari. It is now the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances :? or the Galactic Alliance.

And the Chiss are puny backward racists. They control a single sector, and even then the sector only contains 29 worlds (including colonies).

Thonblonka or what ever it was from the last book of the lando trillogy, a billions of fighter level beings are at least on par with the hutts. Though the fact that there 600 meters long and shaped like the falcon with tentacles hanging down means that this is'nt that impressive.

Vuffi raas specieswhat ever there name is,,from the same book, at the high end of numbers(filling up a 3ly area) are probly the biggest power out side the new rebulic. They haven't been seen any where after that book.

The machine race probably kicks much ass, but is likely extragalactic.

Im getting the feeling that the Bothans are semi independent. On the galactic map its marked as Bothan space.
