Is Pito a Kirito?
No, SAO:Alternative:Gun Gale Online
does not have Kirito anywhere in sight. Well, he may have a cameo appearance somewhere I didn't see him, but it does not really matter, right?
Can you watch Alicization without watching Sao?
Short answer:
no. Longer answer: you should not as multiple new important characters are introduced in season 2 as well as the reason for Kirito being "stuck" in the "game" he is playing being directly tired to the GGO arc from season 2.
How bad is gun gale online?
It's not bad, not even close to how bad the rest of the series is. But Gun Gale Online is still lacking. It's characters are fun but the plot they go through is just unpleasant to be honest. I don't know if I could recommend watching the first ep, because it'll suck you in for sure.
Should I watch GGO before Alicization?
No.
You don't need to. If you didn't watch SAO Alternative you wouldn't miss anything as it doesn't have any character in common with main SAO. In the case of GGO, you'd miss the introduction of at least one character.
