No matter how level a tile floor feels they are almost NEVER perfectly level on a tile floor.
Tile is likely the culprit to why your wax ring is no longer sealing.
after you change the wax ring you should put plaster of paris around the bottom of the base (apply as if it were caulk, but don't use caulk)
The plaster will harden so it wont rock anymore, the rocking on uneven tiles is what wore the wax down.

If they tiled the floor, it is possible they used a too small wax ring. I had to change all mine to a double sized wax ring when I tiled mine.
Thanks for all the responses. Being less than a year old, if it is the wax ring, should the plumber who installed it handle this?
