There is no official list.
Not sure off the top of my head, but the major ballet companies are; The Bolshoi, The Kirov, The Moscow Ballet, and The St Petersburg Ballet. Often countries such as Russia have many many little companies that may exist and are supported by the small towns they are in.

I'm 90% sure there isn't an official list. But for international companies, they have what they call the "gold standard" list. This list includes includes the Kirov, Bolshoi, Paris Opera Ballet, Royal Ballet, Royal Danish Ballet, and New York City Ballet, in which case NYCB would clearly be among the top 15 in the US. But for the others, a list of that sort would most likely just cause a lot of arguing.
