Downloading interface data
Blizzard has provided an official, but not necessarily up-to-date, mirror
Extracting interface data
Since the switch to the streaming download system in patch 4.0.1, the previously-used Interface Toolkit is no longer supported by Blizzard. Instead, the interface data and artwork can be extracted directly from the client (as of patch 4.0.6) by using the following console commands to extract the code and art, respectively. [1][2]

Once extracted, the files can be found in the BlizzardInterfaceCode directory where the WoW executable file can be found. Note that this must be done in the actual console (accessed by starting WoW.exe with the -console flag, then hitting `), and not via a /console slash command.
Interface scripts are best viewed with a Lua editor. To view .BLP files, use a BLP viewer like XnView
