What counts as midweek?

Strictly Wednesday, the middle day of a Monday-to-Sunday week. Loosely it covers Tuesday to Thursday, the part of the week with no weekend at either end.

Why is Wednesday called hump day?

Because it is the crest of the working week — once you are over the hump, the rest slopes towards the weekend.

Does the week start on Monday or Sunday here?

Monday, following ISO 8601. Sunday-start calendars are common in the US and shift the week's halfway point.
