Have a look at this article on A List Apart: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/prettyaccessibleforms If you haven't been too that site before then have a snoop around. They got lots of really good articles.

It kind of depends on the form itself. Definition lists and unordered lists also are used a lot.

Usually, I would say unordered or definition lists are the most appropriate. If the questions were numbered, I could see using ordered lists. Paragraphs are kind of the lazy way. You can also use field sets, which are really appropriate for groups of related items.
