(a) never at.
(b) it would be 'in the afternoon'.
(c) If you use the plural, it changes the meaning from an implied 'this afternoon', to all/most afternoons.
(d) You would usually say 'most afternoons'.

If you are talking about a specific time you can say 'at'
eg. at 12:00 / at dawn/ at midday
If it is a broader period you use 'in the'
eg. in the morning, in the summer, in the afternoon.

I believe that many people do not use a preposition:
"I am very happy to help you. I am available afternoonS." (The plural of "afternoon" is necessary.)
If you wish to use a preposition, then you might say:
"I am available in the afternoon/ afternoons." (The plural is optional with a preposition.)
