You cannot incrementally import.
You do not need to delete the users.
Just drop the objects in schema and import.

No other option with import. You cannot incrementally import.
You can do with sql mechanisms. But not worth the effort as it will take more time,more manual work and pain.
Number of objects the schema has does not matter.
Size of the schema does matter with exp/imp.
Other options include using RMAN and transportable tablespaces ( with some restrictions and preconfiguration).
