Not likely, ninjas have historically been very poor fighters. They were often undereducated farmers that took up assassinations. They would almost never get into a straight fight if they could ever help it. Normally they died in these encounters.
Pirates had to be specially trained marksmen and fighters with a large variety of weapons just to be successful. And then to survive pirating in navy filled waters. They did sirvive by attacking merchant and cargo ships in a region contested by Spain, France, Portugal and England. So there were a lot of military vessels around. And they needed to be highly skilled at tracking a ship, disabling it and killing the crew without downing the ship, and evading navy vessels. Or defeating or escaping the navy ship whenever they ran into them.
The modern concept of pirates being nothing more than a large horde of drunk morons is pure fantasy brought on by media like disney that like to portray them as idiots on a boat that could never shoot straight if they tried. Because if they did, then Peter Pan would be long dead.
At the same time modern media portrays ninjas as super awesome magical supermen that can run on walls, over water and teleport if needed. And sometimes as the hordes of cannon fodder meant for total annihilation by Schwartzenegger

This is a REAL-LIFE Ninja (Who specialized in hit-and-runs) versus a REAL-LIFE Pirate (Who was a strategist).
Pirates win.

OK, Pirates have NUMBERS. Ninjas usually attacked in groups of one or two, MAYBE three. That's how they remained so mysterious. SOMEBODY would see SOMETHING.

I would have to side with pirates for a lot of reasons, Pirates get
A) Rum
B) Salty Wenches
C) free CD and movie copies
D) free programs and games
While Ninjas much shun material goods and transcend the pleasures of the flesh.
