You should wait and see for a few days.
It cannot be a penalty just for a days downtime however, might take few indexing from Google's end before starting to come up again

No. Outages are common across the web. How new is your site?

Have you checked whether your site has een infected by some virus? do you still rank for your top keywords and check if your long tail keywords are not ranking anymore.

Are you sure you're not seeing the effects of Mayday? [webmasterworld.com...]

If your domain expired and was renewed Google may look at it as a new site if the created date gets reset. Just a guess!

Hmmmm...
There was another report of non-renewal causing issues a while back in this thread here: [webmasterworld.com...]
