What was the declination of the Sun on March 21 this year?
June 21 is generally the date of the Summer Solstice. (It can vary from the 19th to the 22nd depending on the cycle of leap years.) On the Solstice, the Sun will reach a declination, or "apparent elevation from the equator", or 23.5 degrees.
How many months go between when the northern hemisphere receives direct rays from the sun as opposed to the southern hemisphere?
There is no time between these. On the day before the autumnal equinox, the sun is directly overhead in the northern hemisphere (at a latitude just north of the equator). The following day, it is directly overhead in the southern hemisphere (just south of the equator). The sun goes from being overhead in the northern hemisphere to the southern hemisphere instantaneously, the change happening at the autumnal equinox.

Depending on where you live, the last full day of winter, 2012 will be either March 19, March 20, September 22 or September 23.

The sun will be directly of the equator at 5:14 AM UTC on March 20. Until that time, the sun will be over the southern hemisphere, and after that time it will be over the northern hemisphere. The sun will be directly over the equator again at 2:29 PM UTC on September 22, after which it will again be over the southern hemisphere.
