I absolutely hate Facebook but I have a Facebook account which I never use (mostly used to look up people). I tried to use this account during the Stellar registration process and I am getting "Facebook account is too new to qualify". Can you please help?

Oof, that's annoying. We probably can't tell the age on your account. If you send me your stellar username, I'll send some stellars over.

Aren't fb user IDs assigned as increasing numbers? You could probably just decide on a cut-off user ID and treat all lower numbers as "older".

They are increasing within any one user database, but there are many of these databases. So useridA < useridB only implies B is newer than A if dbid(useridA) == dbid(useridB).
