1. Since most bots are really very stupid and not able to handle JavaScript, so you can prevent the registration with a simple JS by submitting a string when sending the form with JS. You can then check the string when you receive the data. I promise that you will catch 99,9% bot registrations with this method.
Yes that should do the job.
I'll go too with a fake field (css hidden) that have to be empty (pseudo value=""), most bots will fill this field.

Yes that nice, thank you very much.
