You can just follow the instructions for installing vbulletin. You do need php, mysql, and a web server. For test sites on my home computer I use a package called xampp that easily installs that stuff for you (and it's all free). You can use that to develop a site then move it to another server by exporting the database.

Another thing I have a question on. I was looking at a package from Godaddy and one of their packages contains 25 mysql databases. Why would one person need so many? Don't you only need just 1 for vbulletin?

I don't know - I imagine that many customers don't need more than 1. Yes, vb only needs one, but you might use a second for a test site. Some people also use wordpress at the same time so I guess that would require another.
