Keeping it strictly in the horror genre, my top ten would be...
#01 Cannibal Holocaust
#02 August Underground's Trilogy (as a whole)
#03 Diary of the Dead
#04 Poughkeepsie Tapes
#05 V/H/S
#06 Blair Witch Project
#07 Grave Encounters (both, although I liked the 1st one better)
#08 [REC] 1 & 2
#09 The Last Exorcism
#10 Cloverfield
With a special mention to "Megan is Missing" that, while not exactly an horror, is a very freightening experience. Also, I would add "Unfriended" to the list, but I'm not sure it classifies as "found footage".
I should note that there would be at least a dozen (or more) other titles, on this list, before any of the PA movies start showing up - anyway, ranking PA I'd say
#1 Paranormal Activity - The Ghost Dimensions
#2 Paranormal Activity - Tokyo Nights
#3 Paranormal Activity 1
#4 Paranormal Activity 3
#5 Paranormal Activity 4
#6 Paranormal Activity - The Marked Ones
#7 Paranormal Activity 2
Also, even if it's not strictly a horror, I think "Chronicle" is worth mentioning since it's easly one of the best superhero movies ever made (if not straight up *the* best).
