The fluid is most likly leaking from your wheel cylinder. I had this problem about two months ago. Jack it up and pull the wheel and the drum off and I bet you will be able to see where it is leaking from pretty easy.

Most likely a wheel cylinder has gone bad. You will need to pull the drum off and replace the bad wheel cylinder. Not to bad of a fix as long as you can remove the drum without any major issues. Good Luck!!
