Mine was peeing brake fluid out the line along the rear axle over the summer. What a rotten job that was! You can rarely have a faulty power booster, but this is really rare. Which circuit is losing fluid? Does the clutch chamber in the MC stay filled with fluid when the brake segment leaks out? Also check under the rear seat (passenger's side) where the axle-to-body flex lines meet the rigid pipes that run through the car.
Don't go too crazy putting the pedal to the floor. All it takes is one stroke too far and the MC seals will hit some corrosion and crap out on you. Then you'll have to pull those lines off anyway to replace or at least overhaul the MC.
This is 9000-style brakes non-ABS, right?
