I know he has the unique ability to write forwards and backwards with either hand. Maybe that has something to do with the variations to his signature. For instance in the last example who have there (#3), that's his name signed backwards.

This is very interesting, I never knew this. I just checked mine and strange I never noticed, but it is also a backwards autograph, like the last one above. You learn something new every day!

I wonder which one is his "real" signature? Mine looks similar to the first one.
They would both be his "real" signature. Any variant autograph becomes an authentic version as long as it is genuinely signed by the right individual. Some people put out several versions, usually depending on where they are signing and if they are being paid for it, but they are all real.
What you are asking is which signature is the most common and which is the most desirable or display worthy.
I don't know which one he does more often, but I kind of like the backwards autograph. I would probably want another different sample to show the variance between them too.
