I was looking around for the size of the Andromeda Ascendant (I recalled it being large but I couldn’t remember quite how large) earlier and I ran across a really cool comparison of ship sizes in various sci-fi shows and movies. There are ships listed from star trek, star wars, babylon 5, farscape, andromeda, BG, and others. The really cool thing is that it’s not just a table showing you relative sizes or anything like that, but rather an (or two, actually) image showing each ship in relative size for comparison.
The one thing I noticed that it was missing was Larry Niven’s Ringworld. Although technically not a ship or a base, it would fit in with the rest of the crowd if it weren’t for the fact that it’s 1.6 million km diameter makes it a tad larger than anything else…

i cant vouch for accuracy, but this guy seems to have done his homework. and its about as all inclusive as ive ever seen.
plus you can pick up all the ships and move them around. excellent site, really!

That’s an awesome site. It has many more ships than the one I posted and he even bothered to include the Ringworld and a Dyson Sphere. It’s too bad that the drag the ships around thing doesn’t work with Firefox, but oh well.
