Im about to import paper wallets from the vancouver bitcoin ATM onto another paper wallet made with bitaddress, before using blockchain to transfer them, How can I check if the site could possibly be being hacked so I dont get my bitcoins stolen at the time? AND How many confirmations are usually needed for the confirmation of your bitcoin transaction? AND what are the fees? do they go higher for the more bitcoins you send or is it lower if you send more to one address? How long does it usually take?
Thanks, Merry Christmas!!

You can't really check if a site is being hacked, no hacker is going to paste "currently hacking" on the home page. They would do in stealth mode, and just steal all the coins.
If the site is down, its probably being DDOS'd

Under attack will be unable to access to blockchain.info
Hacked is another story why not use a local client to store your btc rather than use web wallet?
