I tested some Kernels on my old Dell OptiPlex 390. The old Kernel series 5.10.x is faster than 6.1.x and Liquorix. The system as a whole is more responsive and mainly multimedia. Does the old Kernel 5.10.188-antix that is in the MX Installer receive a security update?

It won't be auto-updated. You can install newer ones (dot releases) again when you see in Popular Apps.

How often, on average, will there be new versions of 5.10.x?

Devs may give a more correct answer :)

antiX packagers, to be more exact.

Yes... But it would be redundant to ask for a 5.10.x kernel in the MX repositories if an antiX kernel already appears in the MX installer. Or not?!
Is every two months or every three months a good frequency to check for a new version?
