Rogues have higher skill caps, so rogue autoattack will still be more than Ranger autoattack.
Rangers are the lowest DPS of all the DPS classes until Luclin, which this server wont see. Couple that with high aggro abilities, very little tools for survivability, and a 40% exp penalty and most people stay away from them entirely. What they lack there they do gain in utility (sow, invis, tracking, snare, etc) and some versatility with nukes and trueshot discipline, so they certainly aren't worthless, but in general it would be a fair assessment to list rangers as the most underpowered class in classic, and possibly through Velious.
