It is usable, but _probably_ not quite stable, and the text doesn't say 
that it is stable. What it says is that "software [is] for the most 
recent stable Linux kernel 2.6.20", meaning the mainstream kernel 2.6.20 
is stable, but not the OpenVZ kernel based on it.

That's right.

You definitely can install this on Ububtu, some info is available from 
http://wiki.openvz.org/Installation_on_Debian (I guess it will work fine 
for Ubuntu). Still, I recommend to use our stable branch, 2.6.18-based, 
unless you really want to be on the bleeding edge.
