I don't play real tournament games and therefore can't compare my chess.com rating to my real rating. Can anybody say something about this? Suppose I have a chess.com rating within 1600-1750 for the 5+2 games.

I think about playing a real tournament which is split in 3 groups of players with different strength.

The lowest group is made up of players with rating up to 1500DWZ (german rating, 1500DWZ should be around 1600elo)

How close is the rating of chess.com to FIDE? 

If someone has a 1400 rating on chess.com, what would their FIDE ranking most likely be? The same, higher or lower?

I'd say chess.com-200=fide.

I got around 2000 fide and 2200 blitz/bullet here.

And I have 1870 lask (it's usually the same as fide) and I'm at 1500-1700 blitz/bullet. 
There's no formula for this.

A question I have been thinking about: Can you compare your Elo rating in one activity, say chess, against another activity, such as a sport or game? Would the comparision be meaningful in any way?

at the beginning you gain super duper fast like over 150 a game or lose super duper fast then at the 10th game you start gaining about 30 then after a while like at 25 games your magnitude is only 16 means you gain that much for beating a same rated player. After about 200 games, you only gain 8 for winning a same rated player. So you should try to win the first few games quickly so you stay high rated

The magnitude of difference between the players affects how many points a win or loss generates.  A 150-point upset results in a bigger change than a win or loss against an evenly-rated opponent.
