I think being an Alpha in Teen Wolf universe as a lot more to do then just pure strength and power. I like to call it compulsion or empathy but you could use charisma as well or willpower. Scott (And Stiles) are at most times very hopeful and positives about what they can accomplish unlike many of the other characters that tend to throw in the towel quickly.

People naturally gravitate towards Scott and I think they do this to show that a Leader isn't necessarily the big bad wolf but the wolf with the most courage, willpower and that gets the job done. You could also measure it in Potential. Who do you follow, the guy that bosses you around or the guy that leads you and makes you a better you. That might be why Derek failed at being an effective Alpha. I loved Boyd because he says in the second season "Not because I want to be like them, but because I want to be like you!". He becomes a werewolf to be more like Scott. Using his new power responsibly and to help people which never really happens, R.I.P Boyd, you are missed.

Now, yes, Scott gets his ass kicked way too much and that is starting to piss me off. Specially when you have Kira who's new to her powers but can already handle a few /more powerful/ Oni's sent by her mom.

Phisically weak still, yes. But clearly the best pack Leader so far.
