Answer 1

I suppose your data is in a mongodb database, so if that's the case, the question is more mongo-related than meteor. You may take a look at mongoexport and mongoimport command line tools.

Edit (for example):

mongoexport -h flame.mongohq.com:12345 -u my_user -p my_pwd -d my_db -c my_coll

You need to install mongodb on your computer to have this command line tool, and obviously you need your mongodb informations. In the above example, I connect to MongoHQ (flame.mongohq.com is the host, '12345' is the port of your mongo server), but I don't know which Mongo host is actually used by the meteor hosting. If you tried the Meteor examples (TODOs, Leaderboard, etc.) locally, chances are you already installed Mongo, since it uses a local server by default.
