I'm currently levelling SV right now, at 73, and if it weren't for misdirection I would be kiting 95% of the time. As it is, I'm kiting about 35% of the time (usually when MD is on CD, or when all my crits happen right after MD). If it weren't for explosive shot (meaning using arcane shot during kiting) it would take me forever to kill enemies.
BM is definitely the easiest to level, but MM isn't bad - you get GFtT easy enough, and MM is based on AP jumps which correlate to pet DPS better than SV's agility. While MM is a lot more mana-intensive, you can get talents which mitigate it very well if you're in solo. I liked levelling MM until about 50 or so, then switching to BM.
Keep in mind that in 3.2 you can level with BGs, as BGs give experience, and at that point your pet's tanking ability doesn't matter if you just want to PvP. At lower levels, survival wont have as much damage but will be an impressive CCer (e.g. scatter shot at 20, wyvern sting at 40, shorter CD on traps, etc) and once you hit 60 you have incredible burst damage.

What level are you currently?
The advantage to BM at low levels isnt just that your pet is a better tank--its that you also have access to your best abilities Beastial wrath/beast within much sooner that explosive shot and chimera shot.
I would stay BM for leveling. Remember that in pvp beast within means you virtually cant be cc-d--and you will be doing more burst damage, and burst damage is a key part of pvp
