The inlet and outlet are both at the top of the meter housing.
In the last two weeks about a quart of water that I've drained would
have ended up in the meter.

At a low point, I have a tee and a downward pointing stub that catches
water, but the problem is
that it's filling up in maybe 5 days during cold weather.

It it is filling up in five days not five years, you have a problem with
the supply. It is possible there is a leak underground. Contact your
supplier.

Actually, I realize I didn't put down the most likely culprit being a
water trap in your line that has filled up...look for a stub w/ a
shutoff valve and cap or a lower loop plumbed into the supply line
also w/ cutoff valve(s) and unions or other removable connections to
drain it...
