The passes won't double if you run it the way you've mentioned above. Also, the developers created a page with details regarding the Wipe Space function found in the CCleaner application.
The answer would be NO, because CCleaner's potential is observed on devices with hard drives. The iPad does not need this type of applications. Of course, there are "cleaners" available but they only perform simple cleaning procedures.
No matter how I adjust the setup in CCleaner from deleting Recent Documents in Word and Excel, the program still deletes them. Any solution?

You will need to download CCEnancher to add additional strings to CCleaner's cleaning abilities in order to keep Recent Documents from deleting. Download the application and run the update and then start CCLeaner. From the cleaning interface click on the Applications tab and search on the list for everything that has connection to office package or applications then perform cleaning.
CCleaner is not available for mobiles, just yet. It is being developed for Android phones but this is the only information available. You might need to look on Windows Store for alternative apps.
The application automatically removes the obsolete files and replaces them with new ones. The process is automated so that you don't have to worry about.

I am not saying that Webroot is bad, but they're just two different applications that offer various features.
Be careful when using the Wipe function because it will wipe the drive for good. This is a measure to erase the partitions on a hard drive. Although the option is available, you cannot wipe the system partition.
