6 characters can be brute forced in a matter of hours usually. This is probably the easiest way.
Do you have a hash or does it have to be done against a live site?

I've got Brutus and I use the Pop3...pop.(address of university).org. But it takes so long and it often crashes. That's why I was wondering if there were any faster simpler alternatives. Again I'm not a professional hacker lol.

Faster depends on the throttling of the pop server and your internet connection speed.
Easier, probably not. But more stable programs certainly exist. In fact it would be trivial to write a short script to do it for you.

THC-Hydra is at least still being maintained.

Recently I have read an article saying that a group of hackers were able to crack even a 16 digit password, so it is not a tough task to crack a 6 digit password. You can try with the hacker software's available on-line to hack this, and I guess it will work. You can test here- medical billing companies in new york BlackFloyd

My guess is that the 16-digit passwords are offline attacks on a password hash. It's doable if you have some decent hardware to throw at it. Then you'll easily be able to do a few thousand attempts per second. In an offline attack more hardware means faster password cracking.

Online brute force attacks are a different story entirely. You're usually limited by the throttling and response times of the service you're attacking. You're usually lucky to get a few dozen attempts per second in online attacks.
