Could I see a link to your forum?

It makes sense in general for integration. You would have a function that takes the necessary parameters (eg: forum ID, topic title, poster, etc) and inserts the information into the database

$db->query('UPDATE '.$db->prefix.'users SET num_posts=new_num FROM '.$db->prefix.'post_counts WHERE id=poster_id') or error('Could not update post counts', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

Try that

Yes, 1.3 will have a set of official tools (most likely in the form of extensions) for fighting spam

Take a look at how post.php handles new topics

Yeah, I was just suggesting how to do it

Not without modifying the code or making them administrators, the whole point of giving moderator permissions in certain forums is to control where individual moderators can edit/delete.

Not without editing the code I'm afraid

It's fine as long as you release your system under the GPL

Yes, because you're making two calls to the script, one when you view the form and one when you submit. That's why I suggested using sessions. It would go something like this:

session_start();
if (isset($_SESSION['hint']))
{
    $hint = $_SESSION['hint'];
    $answer = $_SESSION['answer'];
    $question = $_SESSION['question'];
}
else
{
    $number = rand(1, 2);

    $hint = $hints[$number];
    $answer = $answers[$number];
    $question = $questions[$number];

    $_SESSION['hint'] = $hint;
    $_SESSION['answer'] = $answer;
    $_SESSION['question'] = $question;
}

A MySQL database isn't a file. Just run those queries I gave you in phpMyAdmin, replacing prefix with your database prefix for PunBB
And as for not displaying the information, you can just look in the files (eg: profile.php, viewtopic.php) where the information is shown and remove the showing part
