You can recover your Yahoo account using your alternate address or mobile phone number on file, as explained at:
http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?locale=en_US&page=content&y=PROD_ACCT&id=SLN2081&impressions=true

If you have neither of these, you can't recover your account without your password. In that case, your only course would be (a) to guess the answers to your security questions, or (b) to abandon the account and open a new one.
