Someone will need to mail the forms, whether it's you or them.

The address is
MIT Office of Undergraduate Admissions
77 Massachusetts Avenue, Room 3-108
Cambridge, MA 02139

No, MIT does not consider whether or not you've visited -- they do not track or consider interest.

Most people who are admitted have not won major math or science awards. Just list the awards you do have.
