Answer 1

You can get the width and height of the image like this:

NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString: @"https://fbcdn-photos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/542908_38595311133451268_195dfdd7739613_s.jpg"]];
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageWithData:data];
NSLog(@"%f, %f", image.width, image.height);

Answer 2

Not possible with this API, I tried all possible fields ;-(

1. From Php you can load some bytes of the image (HTTP Range header) and read the JPG header
2. You can re-query Facebook, to get the photo object itself from this ID (I am using FQL API, with attachement field)

It's very annoying ;-(
