If it's an air-cooled unit this is most likely normal, and is called "condensate" being water that is formed when hot humid air hits the cooling elements, much like when you turn on an indoor humidifier too high and you start seeing water droplets at the bottom of your windows -- that's condensate too. There should be a small rubber or PVC line out of the unit someplace which is where the water should drain from. The fact that it forms a puddle just means it's especially humid that day.

If you have an older water-cooled unit, however, it could be a leak and if you don't shut it off and have it serviced, you could destroy the unit. You should be able to tell if it is water-cooled (very rare to begin with today unless it is very old) because there would be a cold water line running to the unit. On the other hand if you have a heat pump or geo-thermal cooling system (also rare) it could be a leak too.

If you're still not sure, time to call a heating/air-conditioning service contractor. And it sounds like you may not be, because actually the "blower" unit should be inside your home, as it is the unit that circulates the cooled air from the cooling coils in that unit through your duct system. What's outside is usually the condenser-compressor unit which has a fan but is used to cool the unit (and actually helps create the cool air that causes the condensate to form).
