That's a tough one. Some questions are more difficult to answer than others. For instance, "how do I break up with my boyfriend?" There are a lot of those and they may sit around longer before they are answered. However, who was the third president of the United States is an easier one because it's objective.
WikiAnswers has more answered questions than unanswered ones, but new questions and answers are being added every few minutes so the numbers are never static. To give it some quantitative sense, according to the conference call by Answer's management on August 13, 2007, out of the total 670,000 questions 375,000 were answered. It gives a slightly better ratio that two to one.
Quite a few - I would estimate about 25 percent are in the wrong categories. The system automatically suggests categories according to the wording of the question. many people just submit the question without reviewing the suggested categories. It's then left to other users to edit the categories so the question shows up in the best place for an answer.
This is impossible to give an accurate answer to. Questions can be answered within literally seconds of appearing on the site - or remain unnswerd for years. It all depends on whether the right person, with the right knowledge has seen the question. Hundreds of questions are asked every second, and the vast majority are answered fairly quckly. If you refresh the unanswered questions page every few seconds - you'll see how quickly that happens.
