After downloading/editing it, how do you go about recompiling the Greenfoot source code into a usable program?

If I am understanding your correctly, you just need click on the 'Compile' button at the lower right corner of the Greenfoot window.

You will need to get a compiler

No, I mean if I wanted to actually modify the Greenfoot API (Actor, World etc)

Well, I figured that. I need to know what exactly to compile, and how to get Greenfoot to run.

You need Apache Ant and the JDK; the instructions for building are in greenfoot/doc/HOWTO.release (within the source bundle). I personally use Eclipse, which has Ant built-in; see the HOWTO.build-in-eclipse file. Use "ant run-greenfoot" to run Greenfoot (or see Eclipse guide). Be aware that Greenfoot is built on BlueJ. The source bundle includes the source for both BlueJ and Greenfoot. You need to configure and compile them separately.
