Could someone explain to me how one can compute the Hochschild homology of the Weyl algebra $A_n$ (i.e., algebra of differential operators with polynomial coefficients in $n$ variables)?

I'm surprised that Mariano hasn't replied. The cohomological version of this question has been asked on MO and answered by Mariano:

I think the answer you want is that $$HH_*(A_n(k)) = \begin{cases} 0 &\text{ if } \ast \ne 2n \\ k &\text{ if } \ast=2n\end{cases}$$
