It seems like the --no-merges option was missing from the command used to gather contributor statistics? This is the output with the --no-merges option:

$ git log --after="2019-01-01" --before="2019-31-12 23:59:59" --no-merges origin/master | sed -n 's/^Author: //p' | sed 's/[[:blank:]]*<.*//' |sort |uniq -c | sort -rn | head -n 10

Hint, my American friend: ISO dates are year-month-day (biggest to smallest) - so 2019-31-12 only works by chance, but correct would be 2019-12-31
