So far I have nailed down 5 types.
1)Teenager with nothing better to do.
2)The Stay At Home Mom whose kids are old enough to be in school
3)The Professor/Grad Student that is asking "human nature" questions.
4)Young adults or college students who don't have "standard hours" jobs and are trying to race a ruckus.
5)The antithesis of number 4, The Older adults who are here to create more ruckus off of other people's ruckus.
I guess I would be type 6) The working person who on his/her lunchbreak being a little bit of 1-5.
What types have I missed?

You would probably put me in the #5 category - I'm an older adult whose son's are men and on their own now, and whose husband just retired.
The thing I enjoy most on Yahoo! Answers is looking for questions that other people ask and the answers others people give, which are on my mind also. I also like to look at what other people are thinking about, what the new generation is up to, and want to offer my ideas and opinions to other people.
I don't try to cause a ruckus by giving answers that I believe are true and equal. If I think my answer will cause trouble I move on to another question. Hope I didn't offend you in anyway.

I have recently completed a 3 month intensely accelerated program and I am looking for a job. So between applications, I drop in to see what's going on. It's kind of nice if you have a litlle knowledge to share that will help someone!!!

i think you've hit the nail on the head. i would be a #6 and sometimes an adult version of #1. you did miss the school kids though who are trying to get answers for their homework.

8)people that can't sleep and are tired of watching TV
9) people that like interacting with other people of all ages

You forgot the soldier in Iraq on guard duty at 4am on his laptop and the bipolar person who has snuck into his counselor's office during a meditation exercise.

I do it to learn. If there is a good question I try to answer it and if I don't know the answer, research it and find out about it.

Illiterate people who try to look like they know something (commonly in politics). They will try to rally people to a cause.
