Dear Sir, this is unlikely to be a sign of kidney cancer. However such frequent urination is definitely not normal and leakage is worrisome. You should visit a urologist and get the urine analysis and culture done. Most commonly it may be a sign of urinary infection but other causes like stones and overactive bladder must also be ruled out.
