TL;DR
There are no confirmed direct buses to Vladikavkaz, but routes via Mineralnye Vody pass through it, and Moscow–Batumi buses stop in Kropotkin (2 hours from Krasnodar).
A private car ride share was offered for the Vladikavkaz–Batumi route (Saturday early morning) — pickup and drop-off only along the direct route, no detours.
There is a reliable bus running the Moscow–Batumi route with a stop in Kropotkin, which is about 2 hours from Krasnodar — convenient for passengers from the Krasnodar region.
Direct buses from Batumi to Vladikavkaz don't appear to exist, but buses routed through Mineralnye Vody pass through Vladikavkaz — you may be able to disembark there.
It's worth contacting Batumi–Moscow bus operators directly — some may be able to arrange a Vladikavkaz stop on request.
The availability of a Batumi–Vladikavkaz bus remains unclear. Check with local carriers or at Batumi bus station for current routes.
