If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

How do you change your rescue email if you have forgotten your security questions?
I've had my IPad for about 2 years now and I have bought a lot of apps since but all of a sudden it asks me to answer my security questions whenever i try to buy an app! I click the link to the apple Id page and it says resend security information to my email. apparently the end of my email ends with yahoo.com and whenever I log on to that it's yahoo.ca and I cannot find the email with the instructions to change my security questions!! So please me as this has never occurred before! How do you change your rescue email if you have forgotten your security questions? And can you somehow purchase apps without answering your security questions because I just put 25 dollars onto my apple id and I don't want it to go to waste! Please help me!
You won't be able to change the rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
