I stumbled here by chance.
 
I have seen better answers to this question before.  Maybe a duplicate or another forum.  Here they are.
 
1. "I am thinking of the numbe 1 or 2.  Is your number strictly larger than mine?"
yes -> 3, no -> 1, don't know -> 2.
(actually a variation of Paul Hammond's answer)
 
2. "Answer by "yes" or "no".  Answer with a word that has that many letters".
yes -> 3, no -> 2, er... -> 1.
