Shine a light at the reservoir and it should be obvious where the marks are - I wouldn't drive it again until you've checked this. It may be as Ian suggested it's just got low brake pads and the fluid level has dropped enough, but with brakes it's always advisable to confirm the obvious before assuming it's nothing to worry about

A leak would be rare without obvious loss of braking performance (you'd expect one circuit of the split to stop functioning and for it to behave very strangely under braking as a result)
