Answer 1

It is often used a plugin language, e.g. Adobe Lightroom, World of Warcraft, and others.
Like Python, PHP and Ruby, it is a high level, dynamically typechecked language. It is prototyping, like javascript. The VM is faster and more lightweight than many other high-level languages, and it comes without many libraries to keep the memory footprint small (unlike python, that has the "batteries included" motto). For this reason, it is suitable for programming of embedded devices (like routers with 32 mb RAM). For example, the luci configuration interface for OpenWRT is programmed in Lua.
