Try option --skip-grant-tables to mysqld or in mysql.cnf.
This will dectivate ALL authorization-checking, but will make the server a
little bit faster...

 If yes, what is the port number ?

To my knowledge, such a port doesn't exist.

Why would anyone want such access without authentication?

Just curious.

Yes, I know. Therefore I wrote "ALL" in capitalized letters :-)
If authorization checking is a "must have" for you, then I think you have no
chance to connect without it. Or run a second mysql-server without
authorization on the same data-files (not very efficient)...
