Chopster, if you can see the fitting on the inside of the tank you might be able to tighten it up without draining down, usually the flange on the inside has two square bits sticking out. If you can get to it(the water will be ice cold) use a file or some other flat bar across the flange to hold and tighten the other side with a spanner(dont loosen it!) might just have come loose. Then you will need to reinstate the tank platform.
If you cant get to both sides of the fitting coz the tanks too deep or something, then drain down and strip out, may need new fibre washers, available at any plumbers merchant. Or it may be the tank itself(as HM said). Often the holes in the tank have been cut by heating a piece of pipe and melting through. This will cause cracks in the plastic over time so holes should really be cut out using a hole cutter or similar. Either way don't worry about it, a tank replacement is pretty easy too(especially since you can get the tank out the way and renew the platform in this case)
