Have you checked either reseviour for low fluid? Power steering fluid could be leaking out of the boot, but that would be 1ft away from the tire unless it's trickling along the tierod end.
Stick your fingers in it and rub them together, do your fingers resist each other and the fluid feel really dry? If so, then it's brake fluid.
Does the fluid feel slippery and like an oily substance and have a redish/brownish tint to it? If so, then it's PS fluid.
If the rack is leaking, it needs to be replaced and an alignment must be done.
