Puede significar que "no tiene idea" o también "despistado".

Significa que no sabe nada, no entiende nada. Es por eso que necesita "conseguir una pista" - para saber lo que está pasando. (but it's figurative, he's not really gonna get a clue. Get a clue! That guy's clueless!)

El sufijo -less = sin o no tener.

Clue = idea o pista. clueless: no tener ni idea.

Home: casa, hogar, homeless: sin casa o hogar.

Useful: útil. Useless: inútil.

Meaning: sentido. Meaningless: no tener sentido

Fruitless, hopeless, helpless, powerless, defenseless........
