Has anyone tried to do psionics in DW?

Not explicitly DW, but related.

Watching the Star Trek TNG episode “Disaster”. Season 5, I believe. You want examples of the GM’s moves? Watch it.

Matt Capizzi and I were pondering, this past Monday at our weekly DW game run by Christopher Grau : does the ranger’s animal companion have HP? I know there is the Man’s Best Friend move (which I intend to take for my human ranger, Isaiah Greylocke, next level), but what happens if the fiction moves in the direction that the animal might take a hit (for example, if I Defy Danger by running away from a hail of arrows, but only get 7-9, and a hard bargain must be taken)?

Some questions:

(1) What’s the mindset behind having the GM not make any die rolls?

(2) Has anyone run or played in a DW game with only two PCs? The book says 2-5, and if I do this thing I’d like to do, I’d only have two PCs, the minimum. Any tips for such a small party?

(3) This is going to sound like a very D&D-ish question, but when it comes time for combat, is there a rule of thumb for “balancing” the number of monsters against the size and/or average level of the party?

While it’s not technically Dungeon World, I am using DW principles in the course of devising a hack/re-skin for space adventures.
