The pilot on my water heater will turn off two to three times per week. Why might cause this problem?

It could be caused by a wind draft blowing out the pilot. It could need a new thermocouple, It could be that you are using most of the hot water and as it heats the new water condensation is forming and dripping on the pilot and putting out the pilot.
Just some thoughts.
