I don't think it is possible to determine the weakest possible level. One could make a program that plays much worse than random. It would for instance rather fill its eyes than pass. I don't think any handicap will be enough to allow such a player to win. Especially when the (human) opponent knows the anti-tactics that were built into the program.
