I agree with Rover that most of us would us "me" but if you want to make everyone happy (the people who worry about grammar more than being natural, and the people who just want to sound natural), you could say "than I am."

Yes, it should.

It depends on which grammar you follow.

Some writers consider that 'than'' functions as a preposition in such sentences; 'me' is therefore grammatically acceptable.
