Since the -mente makes the word an adverb, it does not have a plural; adverbs don't have plural forms. And as far as I know, sí, inútilmente es una palabra.

then what word in spanish can be plural and mean usless at the same time? - kevinzuniga69, Apr 23, 2011
"Inútiles", from the word inútil. Por ejemplo: Las lapices inútiles. - Azabache, Apr 23, 2011
Oh, and I apologize, I'm not sure if lápiz keeps its accent when in the plural. - Azabache, Apr 23, 2011
**Los lápices... ;) - Dakie, Apr 23, 2011
Muchas gracias, Dakie. (: - Azabache, Apr 23, 2011

-mente. (Del lat. mente, abl. de mens, -tis, inteligencia, propósito). 1. elem. compos. Forma adverbios a partir de adjetivos. Fácilmente, pobremente.

So, being an adverb, it can't be saind in plural form, just nouns can be represented that way.
