It depends. Can the person not drink it and not miss it? Or is it a requirement?

Six ounces a day could definately LEAD to becoming an alcoholic. Two drinks a day (at 1-1/2 oz each) is acceptable according to most published articles.

Some doctors say that if you drink more than one beer/drink a day your body becomes dependent on the alcohol, and that is not healthy.
It is not a good idea to drink 6 ounces of liquor daily. If you can cut back it would improve your body's long term health.

No, a lot of people drink an small amount of alcohol a day to relax. Dont worry about what other people say to you, if people are on your case about it. It's none of their business, and if you're not harming anyone, then you're fine. I drink more than that quite a few times, but I don't harm anyone, either. Have your small drink, and relax. I imagine with some folks, if they didn't relax they might be so tense they might lash out on others. You're fine.

That's not the definition. Having said that, it's VERY unlikely that a person who drinks that much is not dependent and that's alcoholism.

You are if you can't go a day without drinking that much liquor.

actually if "I" did that, I wouldn't be typing this. I'd no doubt be in a coffin. I can't process alcohol, but I would think that if you crave hard liquer and you feel the compusion to drink, then the answer is yes.

No. You're an alcoholic when it causes you problems in your health-mental or physical.
