I dont think you can really make a definitive 'top 10' of most effective because there is too much variance between instructors/method of training/individual student/application. Ones that i have seen work or seen that they would work (by sparring against/training with/watching a practitioner) ive listed...

no particular order...

1. Muay Thai

2. BJJ

3. Kyokyoshin Karate

4. Seido Karate

5. Hapkido/Daito Ryu Aiki Jutsu

6. Boxing

7. Kickboxing

8. Judo

9. Kempo

10. TRADITIONAL korean kwan arts, TRADITIONAL taekwondo. (emphasis on traditional - this depends on instructor/student, i have no faith in any kind of high/flying kicks in street application)
