Broad Autism Phenotype Test
You scored 123 aloof, 112 rigid and 106 pragmatic
You scored above the cutoff on all three scales. Clearly, you are either autistic or on the broader autistic phenotype. You probably are not very social, and when you do interact with others, you come off as strange or rude without meaning to. You probably also like things to be familiar and predictable and don't like changes, especially unexpected ones.
Rigid & Language
You scored 79 aloof, 85 rigid and 80 pragmatic
You score above the cutoff for both rigid personality and pragmatic communication differences. You probably don't really like changes, especially unexpected ones. You may have a daily routine that you seldom vary, dislike going to unfamiliar places or meeting new people, or have specific rules about how you do things which you refuse to change. In addition, you likely have trouble with communication, which is probably more evident in informal, social settings than in more formalized settings where the expectations are explicitly stated. However, you are apparently just as interested, if not more, in interacting with other people. You may be either on the broader autistic phenotype, or in fact autistic.
As someone who is not diagnosed, it is interesting to see the scores . . .

I would be interested in my parent's scores, except my father (who I'd say had some ASD issues) is gone. It would also be interesting to consider my scores if I thought of having children . . .
And did you see my quotation marks? They were meant to indicate that the BAPQ (or any psychological test) cannot 100% predict anything, without misses and false hits, and the quotation marks were also there because in your case it wouldn't be forecasting for the future, if you had your parents (if they'd both have been still alive) take this test to see if you have ASD.
And if you're thinking of having children and you might have ASD undiagnosed and you want to know if your children will have ASD, you should go for professional evaluation whether or not you have ASD, and in case you have ASD, chances are higher that your child will also have ASD, and chances also depend on whether or not your child's other parent has ASD (diagnosed or undiagnosed).

Socially Odd
You scored 98 aloof, 80 rigid and 94 pragmatic
You score above the cutoff for both aloof personality and social communication difficulties, which means you have decreased interest in interaction and also probably find it hard to communicate effectively in social situations. These two categories may be interrelated - someone who is fairly aloof doesn't practice interacting with others as much, and someone who finds it hard to interact with others may decide to find other things to interest themselves. However, you're probably reasonably flexible and not particularly upset by new situations, changes in routine or trying something a new way. You may be on the broader autistic phenotype, or actually autistic.
Nothing really new.

It is indeed quite informative. I'll try these questions in Aspie-quiz, and see if there are any novel aspects not covered in Aspie-quiz. Looking at them quickly, they seem to cluster with three primary domains in Aspie-quiz: Aspie compulsion, NT social and NT communication.
My result:
