The backup files are where you told Akeeba Backup to put them, i.e. in the Output directory you specified in the Configuration page. If you haven't touched the Configuration yet, the default backup output directory is administrator/components/com_akeeba/backup under your web site's root. The easiest method is by navigating to the Administer Backup Files page and using the download links on the far right of each entry, but this is not the recommended method. The suggested, tested and guaranteed method of downloading your backup files is nothing else than using FTP and its variants, such as FTPS, FTPES and SFTP.
