Hello,
I'm not really experienced with FR, but maybe this is enough to help you.

it provides any

example like by using files….. etc.
FR is able to store users and their attributes in a couple of backends
including sql database and a users text file. See the modules section of
radiusd.conf for more information.
1) What is the maximum length of username and password allowed in
freeRADIUS ?
That probably depends on the backend you're using, or look in
http://www.freeradius.org/rfc/rfc2865.html if there's a limit.
2) What is the maximum number of users allowed to authenticate? I
mean, how many users does it maintains in its database?
I guess that's a question of performance first. Propably all backends
can store _enough_ users and FR can also handle them.
4) Is there any necessity or possibility to use secondary RADIUS server ?
Technically it's not necessary. But if you use it for something
important it's obvious better to have one... ;-) It's possible of course
to set up 2 RADIUS servers.
