Charlie is right, the rubber seal/diaphragm is probably shot. You can remove the slave and have a look. When I recently removed mine, I glad that I wasn't going to have to bleed the clutch afterwords (the seal prevents air from getting in - that's why you remove the whole slave instead of undoing the line when you need to drop the bellhousing); however, once I removed it I realized the seal was bad and a little fluid was dripping into the bellhousing (hence the leak coming from the bottom of your bellhousing). I have a new one, but have yet to install it. Good luck.
