For your first question, it depends on the area of the world. I don’t think you’ll find an average for worldwide consumption. For instance, in Palm Springs, California (which is in the desert) families consume 1400 gallons of water a day:

http://www.dwa.org/water_info/w_average_consumption.aspx

For the entire USA, one site said “101 gallons per capita (person) per day (gpcd), for both indoor and outdoor water use in a single-family residence.”

http://www.cob.org/documents/pw/utilities/20061002_water_consumption_and_water_conservation.pdf

This site, from the U.K. gives litres per day of domestic water consumption:

I don’t know the answer to your second question.
