Best for what?
I like them all.
Best as in 'favorite'?  Then I choose crafty.
Best as in 'strongest'? Then we do not have enough data to say for sure.
From Leo's list, we have this:
5  List 512             2687
6  Ruffian 2.1.0        2682
7  Pro Deo 1.0          2672
8  Aristarch 4.50       2666
9  Crafty 19.13-64      2647
10 Maestro 1.08uci      2624
11 SmarThink 0.18a-r165 2616
12 WARP 0.65            2610
13 Pharaon 3.1-64       2610
14 Fruit X-12/11        2610
Due to the number of games played, it is safe to say we do not know which engine
is strongest.
Best as in 'most fun to play'?  That will depend on mood.  I enjoy playing
against them all.
