How can we read a username or password. For example, should we read a username like mar320 as mar-three-two-zero.?

Yes, but usernames and passwords are usually spelt out letter-by-letter after pronouncing them.
 
You shouldn't be reading out or spelling out your passwords to anyone!
 
I mean should I say the numbers one by one?
 
Three twenty/three two oh/three hundred and twenty.

You can suit yourself; you'll be understood whatever you say.
 
Just say it in a way that is logical and economical. My username is generally said as tee-dol, which fits the spot.
