Get that thing to the dealer. It sounds like more than just random accidental clicks of the fob.

After the security guard alerted me at work that my trunk was open (my office is close to where I park), I had the dealer reprogram my car so that the trunk can open only if the car is unlocked. So unless I accidentally unlock the car, and then inadvertently press the trunk release, my trunk won't fly open should the trunk release get pressed while the key is in my pocket. I haven't had the issue since.

Maybe your Trunk Monkey went for a walk and forgot to close it?
