From what I have read about how water meters work you should be able to find out if your faucet is dripping or your toilet is running by checking your water meter before you go to work and when you get home 8-9 hours later because for any water to get in to your house it has to pass through the meter, not just past a little pin wheel that is stuck in the flow and that the inner workings of the meter shouldn't let more then a few drops pass per day unchecked.
You would be better off saving rain water or fixing the things that waste water in your house.
If you have a dehumidifier that runs, save the water from that, same with the water that condenses in your furnace, otherwise it all goes down a drain.
