Using the AC 40 as a target and +7 to stat, the fighter has a 40 percent chance to do one hit for .4 hits on the differing attacks and the monk has a 2.25 percent chance of hitting twice and a 25.5 percent chance of hitting once for a total of .3 hits so the fighter gets .1 more hits on average per full attack than the monk in this situation; obviously varies with to hit stat and target AC

I like monks, but I realize they have issues. Just thought I'd chip in with some math

Also, scorpion kama = excellent
This is also assuming, of course, that full attack is an option.
