Today means "the current day", so if you're asking what day of the week it is, it can only be in present tense, since it's still that day for the whole 24 hours. in other contexts, it's okay to say, for example, "today has been a nice day" nearer the end of the day, when the events that made it a nice day are finished (or at least, nearly so).

In old books, people often use the spelling "to day" instead of "today". when did the change happen? also, when people wrote "to day", did they feel, when pronouncing the word, that it contained two. Good, that will do for today. (that will be enough) how are you guys doing here? (waitress addressing customers : is everything all right?) do is a process verb: you can proceed through an action, that is perform an action (do one's duty, do one's homework, do the dishes), or you can proceed through an appreciation, as in "the firm doing great". But by putting the "today" at the end, you are making a declaration of time which is odd for the present simple. so, to the answer: i would, in general, use the first construction. though an exact answer would be dependent on the context of the situation.

I think two of these are more or less interchangeable, but one is not. they also lend themselves to different levels of clarification and specificity in their request, and a different order to the information presented. "due by" implies that there is a set time of when it is due. "the sales report is due by 12pm on friday." the day something is due follows the time, which is given more. The 2002 reference grammar by huddleston and pullum et al., the cambridge grammar of the english language, would consider words like yesterday, today, tonight, and tomorrow as pronouns (specifically, deictic temporal pronouns). related info is in cgel pages 429, 564 5. No, "as of" can mean both 1) as of today, only three survivors have been found. 2) as of today, all passengers must check their luggage before boarding the plane.
