I want to get my WordPress blog up and running again (change the theme) but I have forgotten my password. I do not remember the username or email either.
Is there a way to retrieve this without having to reinstall WordPress and lose all my posts?

I am using Wordpress 3.0 so I am not sure if this applies to previous versions of WP or not.
In the WP admin, go to Tools > Import. Then you'll see a list of import tools you can install and use.
I do not think it is possible.
The best way would be to just share your post summary as a status update and basically have the users click to the your blog to read more.
This is the reason the whole Graph API/Facebook Connect came out and everyone started using the like plugin.
Also to support why I do not think this is possible is the case of TechCrunch. They are a Wordpress.com VIP member and I have not seen any feature like this on their site.

Do you remember your FTP account password or your browse filesystem password? If so, FTP into the site, go into the directory you installed WordPress in and look for wp-config.php file. That contains your database's password in clear text.
Not sure what protects phpMyAdmin, but if that's .htaccess or .htpasswd, you can edit or delete that one.
