I can't answer 1 and 2, but I can tell you that Hopkins is very good in sociology. According to US news Hopkins is 25 in the country. I think that changes a little bit depending on what you may want to do.

1. I've never seen any other program like this; however, you know there are hundreds, if not thousands, of sociology program in the states...

2. To my knowledge, there are always companies and government divisions looking for survey/ modelling guys. So the quantitative sociologists have good chances in the job market. Also, demography (which relies heavily on stats) is something you can find in tons of sociology program, so the academic jobs could not be too restrained.

I'm not in sociology, but my partner is a quantitative sociologist (in academia). Check out University of Michigan: Graduate Program

Other than teach and do research in a university, you can do a number of things with such a degree and be highly successful.
