Seems to be major problem with wagons - leaky rubber that surrounds the tailgate - something they inherited from sedan trunk lids that always leak.
On 20 yr old car, I'd probably replace the entire weather stripping all the way around. You should also prowl around underneath and check for drains being clogged, little rubber nipple boots is what you look for. The water must be going somewhere and will otherwise rust out the car.
