Mike,
There was a link to an internet site which displayed such a list but it seems the site doesn't exist any longer (Geocities/athens/parthenon 1871). So here is the list from my files with rounded tonnage sunk.
1.Lothar von Arnauld de la Perrière - over 400000 tons
2.Walter Forstmann - 380000 tons
3.Max Valentiner - 300000 tons
4.Hans Rose - 210000 tons
5.Otto Steinbrinck - 210000 tons
6.Waldemar Kophamel - 190000 tons
7.Walter Schwieger - 190000 tons
8.Hans von Mellenthin - 170000 tons
9.Claus Rücker - 170000 tons
10.Otto Wünsche - 160000 tons
11.Reinhold Salzwedel - 150000
12.Steinbauer - 140000
13.Gansser - 140000 tons
14.Robert Morath - 130000 tons
15.Wilhelm Werner - 130000 tons
16.Leo Hillebrand - 130000 tons
17.Otto Schultz - 130000 tons
18.Rudolf Schneider - 130000 tons
19.Ernst Hashagen - 130000 tons
20.Kurt Hartwig - 130000 tons.

Some day, I'll try to take time to get more accurate the above tonnages.
Yves
