We drive down the Baja every winter in our truck and 5th wheel. We usually cross at Tecate and that hooks us up to Mex 1 in Ensenada. We don't ever get stopped at the border there at all.
Not sure exactly what you are concerned with in terms of federales. We've have nothing but good experiences with the police and the inspectors at the military checkpoints. So far we've been treated courteously and professionally.
As far as Rosarito specifically, we don't stop that far north so I don't have any specifics for you. You can check Baja Nomads for more info there as well.
I see singles traveling alone along the Baja and I don't think it raises any eyebrows any more than a single guy traveling alone in the US. Just use common sense, lock you belongings when away, and don't be flashy with jewelry or other items to attract a lot of attention to yourself.
Oh yeah . . . stay away from bad areas of town there just like you would here . . .
