During the summer months down here in FL you need the AC to be in the recirc position while during the winter months the AC is off and the windows and/or the top is down. Am I doing more harm than good by keeping the actuator disconnected?

I doubt you are doing any harm at all. What you did(by disconnecting actuator) is the same thing as having your fresh air flap in one position all the time. When you disconnected the actuator, if you were in recirc mode, then it will stay in recirc full time now. If you were in fresh air mode, then it will be in fresh air mode full time.
If you are not sure, then just plug the actuator back in, put it in the mode you want, then disconnect again.
