As the Cheshire Cat points out, everyone's mad in Wonderland, and it is true to say that all of the characters are eccentric, at least, and if they weren't, then they wouldn't be there.
The phrase "as mad as a hatter" was well known in Lewis Carroll's day, and was a probable inspiration for the character of the Hatter.
At the time, many hatters suffered from Mercury poisoning. Mercury was a chemical used by hatters to cure felt hats, and the toxic effects of it caused symptoms which resembled 'madness'. Because of this many people assume that the Hatter had mercury poisoning.
Whether Lewis Carroll's Hatter actually had mercury poisoning, or if he was just named after the saying is debatable.
In Tim Burton's 2010 movie, it is strongly implied that mercury poisoning is the cause of the madness in their depiction of the Hatter.

What is Mad Hatter Day?
Mad hatter day is October 6th (10/6 - which appears on the mad hatter's hat in the Disney "Alice in wonderland" It is the second silliest day, To which April fools is the first, and it tells us the world is more messed up than we think. For example: * We travel around by taking the juice from hundred-million-year-old rotten dinosaur food and exploding it in a metal can. * A "sports fanatic" is not someone who participates in sports, but someone who sits indoors on a beautiful day, drinking beer while yelling at the picture on a little box. (Throw the ultimate football party: Forget the TV; just sit around eating and drinking with friends.) * As much as we say we like to "get away from it all", the more successful we are, the more we take it all with us when we go. (Take a vacation with all the comforts of home: Just stay home!) * We're so well-fed that we're getting food with intentionally reduced nutritional content--so we can take the trouble to eat without getting the benefit of doing so. (Enjoy the ultimate in fast-diet-food: Skip lunch.) * We've saved so much gift-giving for the Christmas season that it has entirely unbalanced the flow of cash and consumer goods through the year. So merchants decided to start the season early to have something to do the rest of the year. (There's now only one major gift-giving holiday -- but it lasts for five months. Surprise someone with a Mad Hatter Day present.) (resources: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~ari/madHatter.html and to my knowledge. the Cheshire cat does not give information that makes sense apparently however.)
