Are you seeing fluid on the inside of the wheels or not? Consumption of brake fluid without obvious leaks can be caused by the hydrovacs rather than the wheel cylinders. The fluid can leak into the vacuum side of the hydrovacs and then be drawn into the engine intake and burned.

You need to pull the hydrovacs out and inspect them, if you have brake fluid inside the vacuum canister, then you need to rebuild, or if you don't have any power brakes, then their is a problem with a booster. I would physically look at each wheel brake first, you may have some sticky wheel cylinder pistons and/or some leakage. Brake fluid sometimes disappears into thin air....
