I am not sure I understand what you are saying here Baalz, should I blood hunt in 5,000 - 6,000 pop provinces or in 5,000 - 10,000 pop provinces or 10,000+ pop. provinces. I consider you an expert when it comes to playing Mictlan by the way. 
Also do you recommend as Mictlan researching construction first for dousing rods/jade knife? I figure if you go with a double/triple bless for your sacreds your very safe the first 20 turns or so...

As Mictlan I would go all the way to to Const6 since a F9W9B4 (maybe add a D5) bless will make you fairly safe with a Dom of 8.
This way you get the rod, jade knife and boots of youth for your High Priests in addition to all the nice path boosters and other goodies. Depending on the circumstances I might find myself forced to go for blood or summons earlier, but mostly try to stick to Const6.
In addition I would leave 10k+ provinces alone (in order to get gold) and bloodhunt in the 6k-10k ones. Most often I try to use 6k-8k ones.
5k-6k provinces go below 5k way too fast and this might lead to some bad hunts. And when I (effectively) exchange RPs for blood I want my exchange ratio to be as high as possible
Usually I can get 100+ slaves each turn by "just" farming 5 6k-8k provinces which should not be THAT bad a drain on you income (likely "wasting" between 200-400 gp depending on where you hunt).
