Either can be correct, depending on the context. 'Who' is used for the subject of the verb and 'whom' for the object.

'The man who I saw was kissing the girl was your uncle.' (Subject - I saw he was kissing the girl.)

'The man whom I saw kissing the girl was your uncle.' (Object - I saw him kissing the girl.)

Is it correct to say guess who we saw today?

Yes. "Guess who we saw today" is a command, and is considered acceptable grammar. actually, that person is wrong. It is actually incorrect. Though it is a command, since the person "who" is the direct object and is not the subject, it would then be changed to whom. So the correct answer would be, "Guess whom we saw today." I know, strange sounding, but it is grammaticaly correct.
