The easiest way to know when one of your questions has been answered is to click on the email icon under "Answer It" after asking the question. You'll need to go to "My Settings" under "My Pages" in the blue side bar and scroll down to "Email Updates."
For individual questions, check "Real-time notifications about updated answers to questions I'm following." You will receive an email when the question is answered and whenever the answer is changed after that.
Just a note: If you are watching a lot of questions, this can result in a lot of emails. You can stop the emails by unchecking the box in "My Settings."
Another way to check for answers is to bookmark the question page to your browser's toolbar.

Because you can't answer a question that has never been asked. Ideally, there there should only be two kinds of questions on WikiAnswers - those that have been answered, and those that will be answered.
