Can I mount this on the stem of a road bike?

if your stem is round, sure. The mounting plate has cutouts running vertically and horizontally, fit well on my wife's threadless stem. My road bike stem is an old aero-style Deda Murex which has a pointy cross section, so the cycle computer went on the handlebar.

Does it have to be handlebar mounted horizontal to the road? Or, can it be "tilted" at a 45 degree angle?

It doesn’t matter where or the angle tilt of your computer. I once mounted mines on the stem and once on the top tube. It will still work.

No, this is as basic a wireless unit you can find these days.

I have polarized sunglasses. I have had problems with reading bicycle computers in the past. Will I have issues with seeing the screen?

I have polarized sunglasses as well and don't have a problem viewing the screen. One thing to note, not all polarized sunglasses are the same. That's why I bought the computer at this price point, if I had trouble reading it I wasn't out much.
