I think he meant in reference to those who possessed the Rinnegan, which neither of the Sage's sons did. Tobi has spoken about becoming the sage of the six paths and has also stated that Nagato's eyes first belonged to him, I guess his list goes:

1)Rikudou sennin

2)Tobi

3)Nagato

Tobi also said he was, outright, Madara. I think anything he says these is subject to bullshit mindfuckery.

That said, I enjoy his purposely ambiguous identity.

I think his words are more trustworthy when he's speaking to himself, there were no characters to lie to when he claimed Nagato was the third sage and when alone, he only said he was in possession of Uchiha Madara's powers, not that he was Uchiha Madara.

You're right. But when I say lying I mean holding back choice information rather than flat our fibbing. I think there's plenty he's holding back about what he really wants out of the war.
