Best to have the doors on when initially aligning the cill, but without wings you have little register to get those aligned...hmm...

[80Sprint]

If you have wings and doors you ideally need to trial fit them all as you go along. a lot of work sometimes taking bits on and off but it's what you need to get the alignment right.
If you have not replaced a full sill however i am not sure why it would be out of line , or was it before perhaps ? If you have just added the cover sill to the old panel you should have the same height ( or higher if lap welded ) as the old sill. When you fit a full sill however you can end up with it being low if you don't get it right up under the A/B/D posts.

If it's still clamped you could look to lap weld it which will close the gap but you will also end up with a small step. Try taking lots of measurements from the other side of the car if that is ok and see if you can find any odd differences.
