I'd say  anything more than a few tenths of an ohm would be bad,  and most  
ohmmeters are not reliable down that low.  It should read less than 1 ohm  for 
sure

One other item nobody has mentioned yet is if you still have problems with  
the battery being under charged after the alternator is replaced, it could  
be a bad battery ground. When mine was bad, I had the same problems. You  
can quickly test this by checking the resistance between the negative  
battery cable and the frame. Anything more then a few ohms means the  
connection is dirty.
