Do any Albanians live around Lake Ohrid such as Ljubanista or other parts of the southeast shore? I can't find any statistics.

Yes, of course Albanians live in Ohrid. Many lived there for a long long time. However many were shipped to Turkey from the Macedonians. Ljubanista is Torbesh area. They are old Bulgar/Muslims who get along well with Albanians. Some even speak Albanian.

Sorry Ljubanista is not the Torbesh area. Im not sure about Ljubanista. I was talking about Labunista. I read it wrong.
