In chapter 1, Thorin says the following: "We are met together in the house of our friend and fellow conspirator, this most excellent and audacious hobbit - may the hair on his toes never fall out! all praise to his wine and ale! -"
I think audacious, in this instance, means having a willingness to take risks. It may have been a poor choice of word for Thorin to make. Perhaps, if Thorin had used the word brave, courageous, heroic, or valiant, he would have gotten a more positive response from Bilbo though it seems Bilbo was not in a mood to hear any words of that kind spoken of himself so early in the story. Bilbo is a hobbit after all and hobbits never do anything unexpected.
