wow addons are written in LUA. There are loads of resources that deal with programming in LUA (it's a regular scripting language).
For wow specifics, look
here for the API.

As I said, blizzard has made an API for LUA. So if you want to write 'official' plugins for WOW, you might as well use the official language... ie LUA
For hacks, you are on your own. From what I have read, the wow warden is pretty strict. It checks all the processes that run on your pc, it also scans through all windows to find strings it doesn't like... some people have labeled it as spyware. As i am a longtime wow player, I am VERY careful with what I try on wow.. I don't want to lose my acocunt.
