Yes, you can take it more than once. Some colleges will take the highest results and some will super score. Super socre is when they will take the highest score in each area, not just the highest average score. This way you can take it several times and they will take the highest area scores on each test you takel. It's hard to explain here but your school counselor should be able to help or your college/university representative.

Yes, you can take it as many times as you like. They take your best score, not the average.
However, I think most universities and colleges will only accept ACT scores which are no older than 4 years old.
EDIT: As far as I know, the LSAT is the only standardized test which averages scores. :(

Yes, and they take your best score. I took it twice and actually did better the first time.

Yes and yes. Many people take the ACT more than once. If you can afford it, go for it.
