How much easier is it to guess someone's hint question than it is
their password? I'm guessing it's a lot, considering you're given
a hint and the answers are usually given as simple words, not random
characters as good passwords could be. 

I would consider if is the security risk was worth it.

Is there some mechanism that would make giving an answer to a hint
just as secure as a password? I can't think of one, but if there is,
then maybe forgoing the password altogether in favor of the hint would
be better.
