If I download mod packs from the galciv website under which game folder do I unzip the files to, Galactic Civilizations folder or the Expansion pack folder? Will the mod packs work for both regardless of which game folder I unzip them to or does it matter? Someone please let me know.

You should put the mods in the GC folder and they will work in both GC and AP expansion. GC does not read AP data but AP reads GC data. :)

Of course, if you belong to TotalGaming.net, and let Stardock install your game, then the path is different upto ***/mod/xx

Yep no problem. :)

The old mods site is still running if people want to go there. All the mods are fully tested and will not cause anomalous scores.

Link to mods site > http://files.galciv.org

I guess it is better to say "will not INDIVIDUALLY cause anomalous score".
