Let's see shall we

Short Range 

Like Elgb said below the Ninjato probably never actually existed and was just something made up to sound cool. Nevertheless it doesn't matter if they actually used it or not because it loses out to the Espada Ropera anyway. It's the larger and heavier blade with greater attacking power and is therefore more practical in a battle.

Edge: Conquistador

Mid Range

Once giving the edge to the more practical weapon in the Alabarda. The Kusarigama is certainly a fancy looking weapon and would appear to have the longer reach but that's only if you swing it around like a madman. Sure it can be used to trip and distract but there are so many options to choose from that it's more likely to distract the user than the opponent. The Alabarda has just as many options with it's spear, axe and spike head but all of these are pretty simple to use and are more deadly anyway.

Edge: Conquistador

Long Range

Honestly both are pretty useless. Neither are going to pierce the others armour and they have better ranged weapons in the form of their rifles anyway. I will say though that the Pistol Crossbow is considerably more accurate, not that that'll make much of a difference.

Edge: Even
