Answer 1

You can run a FQL query that will give count of friends list for a particular user based on id. Try hitting below link https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer?fql=SELECT%20friend_count%20FROM%20user%20WHERE%20uid%20%3D%20me()%0A.

Answer 2

The Facebook SDK provides a FriendPickerFragment class that displays a list of friends for a user. You'll host this fragment in a new activity. The activity you define will be used when a friend or place is selected. You'll launch the activity when the user clicks on a friend or place picker item. You'll set up the activity and show the relevant fragment based on incoming intent data.
