No, Wowhead is a fan website.

My understanding is that Wowhead is an official fansite recognized by Blizzard, and therefore, if your question has an accurate, concrete answer which could be looked up on Wowhead, it'd make sense for a Blizzard rep to refer you to Wowhead (or any other officially recognized fansite, for that matter, assuming they have the answers as well--Wowhead is probably the most popular fansite for DB lookups.)
Wowhead isn't funded by Blizzard, though. Company-wise, it's an independent media fansite, and is part of the ZAM network. But as a media fansite, most of its financial support comes from advertisements. That alone is a pretty good chunk of money when you consider the Internet traffic Wowhead gets on a daily basis.

Apparently, they do refer to Wowhead in the copypaste ticket response, and they indeed actually mean to use the ressources provided by Wowhead (e.g. the database) but the way it is phrased, it can easily be understood as "go ask someone on the Wowhead forums"
