In NWN's its gloves of the Hin Fist +3 which I believe give +2 of sonic damage (I don't remember getting anything better in the game). In SOU its twin fists of fire which gives +4 fire damage/+4 hit (and another unbelievable twin summon once a day), or Hin Fist +5 which gives 1d6 of sonic damage.

Unarmed attack is FAR superior to just about ANY weapon (especially when you consider the elemental damage from gloves) - it most certainly IS the best "weapon" in the game at Monk level 16 where it becomes 1d20 (and you should really consider acquiring the feat improved critical for unarmed strike if you haven't already). If you have SOU then you should seriously think about Greater Cleave and Circle Kick.

BTW, strength modifiers really add up the damage with unarmed attacks because the monk attacks so often.
