From bottom to top:

Chips
Chili/Beans
Cheeses
Guacamole
Sour Cream
Jalapenos

The general rule for me is you go from hot to cold (cheeses of course being stored cold but you want them to be hot and melted on the nachos,) with the exception of the jalapenos because A.) they are a pretty garnish and B.) you wouldn't want to accidentally get three or four buried in a single bite.

I have to say though, chili is rare on nachos around here. Usually it is just refried beans (mashed and cooked-again pinto beans) or black beans. Sometimes ground beef or fajita meat will be layered on top of that, but usually not together with the beans in a chili sauce.
