Today is an adverb when it describes "when".

I will go home today.

Today modifies the verb "go" by telling "when" you go.

Another opinion:

Today is a noun, not an adverb, nor an adjective. What it counts is its primary function in a sentence, not depending on how it is used. According to Babylon, today is :

today

n. current day.

An adverb modifies a verb, and an adjective qualifies a noun.

Today is always today anytime of the current day, so it is always a noun.
