I don't think he can really be compared to either of those, but if you have to make a choice, I'd say Sorcerer. From reading the Silmarillion, I know he's one of the Mayar (don't quote me on this as it has been a while since I read it, it might be something else), 'lesser divine beings' if you will. I am under the impression that he doesn't have to study to gain his magic, just like Sorcerers. Again, don't quote me on this, as I'm not entirely sure.
