Do you feel the judder under your foot as the ABS kicks in or is it just the pump running that you can hear? The pump runs to put pressure into the system and will cut in every 4 or 5 presses of the pedal. Any more often than that means that the brake accumulator is on it's way out.

Tried changing your shoes? No, seriously! With one of my pairs of work boots the friction between the pedal rubber and the sole gave a vibration that felt exactly like the ABS kicking in, when I pressed the pedal quite hard...

Yeah, that took a while to figure out.
