Why not just kill Dany and Viserys
At the risk of contradicting myself-if we know nothing else about Varys, its that he's clever enough to always hedge his bets. If something should happen to Aegon before he is old enough to claim the throne, a male heir borne of either one of them would be his only hope to gain control of the realm. Only a Targ would carry enough stroke to challenge the Baratheon/ Lannister line of succession - the secret truth Jon Arryn had to die for Varys to keep it so, until the time was right.
Shark -
I believe Aegon was always plan A myself, but I still struggle with him being an imposter in that case - even a Blackfyre. It doesn't make sense to me that Varys would risk all for an imposter, unless he is just another pawn in his ultimate endgame...or he really is Aegon Targaryen.
Regardless, I have little doubt Varys would back Dany and sacrifice Aegon if it came down to it. Illyrio may be 100% for Aegon, but Varys is 100% Varys.
"I serve the realm"
Pffttt.
ETA: anyone heard from our beloved Darkstar fan? After his mention in the recent release of the Arienne chapter, I fear he is in need of IV fluids... Multiple releases of his own...

Varys is Aegon's uncle. Remember how Ned and Tyrion noted how different Varys could look in his disguises? By some kind of magic he is hiding his real eye color and will reveal that by the end of Winds.
