Luke,
We went and looked at our car...check the hoses and clamps closely, since the fill pipe is connected to the tank by rubber extensions(not sure what you would call them) there might be a slight crack in the hose, and its leaking a little. It would make sense, if you notice mainly when you fill the tank. If its slightly overfilled, fuel would be laying in the hoses, allowing some leakage. Also, pull the covers on the fuel pump and check to be sure its not leaking around the connections. We had a fuel system problem, so we are currently well acquainted with this area of the car!
