I've compiled a list of 11 currently available domain names. I only
rated a name "available" if it's ".com" version was available, as that
still seems to be on the top of everyone's mind when they're thinking
of a site to visit.
With that in mind, here are my ideas:
First off, some adjective/noun combinations:
thequalityadvice.com
thegoodadvice.com
thesolidadvice.com
thecorrectanswer
solidadvisors.com
All 4 of the above choices use a short adjective to identify the type
of advice being given. Rather than simply being an advice giver, it is
necessary to implant in the visitor's mind that the advice (or answer)
is going to be good/quality/solid/correct.
3 of the 4 above use "The." This isn't especially a problem, but the
occasional visitor may attempt to visit the site, forgetting to put
"the" in front of the domain name and end up at a different site.
However, if you like the sound of the domain name enough, it may be
worth the risk.
Next I found a few names that use common phrases. These benefit from
being memorable as well as describing your site:
tellmequickly.com
yourquestionis.com
Thirdly, I've chosen a couple alliterative animals to accompany your
site type. These give the site an instant mascot, both allowing for a
guide in terms of site/logo design and keeping the said mascot in
visitor's memories, after visiting. They suffer slightly from being
perceived of as "silly," but depending on the type of advice you're
offering that perception may not especially matter:
answerape.com
answerant.com
Finally I present my two favorites. Both of these selections offer
alliterative, easy to remember names while being descriptive of both
the speed and quality of your answers.
advancedadvice.com
smartnspeedy.com
If you decided on using smartnspeedy.com, you would likely also want
to register smartandspeedy.com (also available) for the users who
entered the complete sounding site name.

If none of the above suggestions work for you, hopefully they may
inspire you to try a few combinations you mightn't have previously
thought of. For looking up availabilty of site names (and, later for
domain name registration) I've found dotster.com to be quick, cheap,
and reliable (and no, I have no investment or other connection to
them). However, any domain registrar will do.
Dotster.com

ICANN-Accredited Registrars

Search Strategy:
Official Registrars list was retrieved by typing "domain registrar"
into google, clicking on the suggested category of "Computers >
Internet > Domain Names" and selecting the ICANN link.

If you need anything else, or would like clarification on any of the
information I've offered, feel free to ask.
