Is there any way to make sum() return "0" instead of "NULL" when one or
more of the rows being sum()'d is null?

Phrased another way, is there a way to make mySQL treat "NULL" as "0"
when dealing with mathematical functions?

Use an IF...

SELECT SUM(IF(myColumn IS NULL, 0, myColumn)) AS myTotal
FROM myTable
