    You could buy domain name and not have site or even buy one for a blogger blog if you want. You can do anything you like once you buy the domain name. If you just want to buy the domain name and never use it they do not care as long as you pay for it.

    Godaddy.com
    Enom.com
    Register.com

    You can easily search Google for Domain Registrars.

    Yes you most certainly can. Many people just 'hang on' to domains for reselling or just in case of future development. You can go through any registrar for this.

    obviously yes, It's not necessary to having a site for having a domain. just register for domain with a good name. Site is just like your shop on internet while domain is the place where you can place your site. So domain can be without site. Once you get domain than you can upload you site whenever you desire.

    of course you can have, but i suggest you to upload a simple index files which described your site "under maintenance" or "coming soon". This trick useful for google indexing your web.

    Yes, you can buy a domain without a website. Most super affiliates usually buy a domain and redirect it to their affiliate links.
