QQQ question for the board,

This has been bugging me for a while, and I brought it up at investment club and we couldn't come with an answer, so I turn to the SI options crew.

Some index-type funds are baskets like the Holders where at anypoint the owner can ask for the actual stocks underlying the holder. Are the QQQ a basket? Can you trade a QQQ in at the nasdaq and receive correctly weighted amounts of the Nasdaq 100. If you can, could it pay a dividend? How would that dividend be distributed? If you can't who gets to create QQQs? How many can there be in total? Do they have any value other than that the price is derived from the Naz 100?

looking forward to some settlement to these quandries... I'll pass them on to my investment club.
