You can explicitely specify the fraction of the canvas in x and y
position (measured from left to right and bottom to top), where the
margins should be set. Example:

set lmargin 0.1   # leave some space for y labels
set rmargin 1.0

# Bottom frame
set bmargin 0.1   # leave some space for ylabel
set tmargin 0.26
set xlabel 'xlabel text'
plot ...
# second from bottom
set bmargin 0.26
set tmargin 0.42
unset xlabel
set format x ''
plot ...
# third from bottom
set bmargin 0.42
set tmargin 0.58
plot ...
# fourth from bottom
set bmargin 0.58
set tmargin 0.84
plot ...
#...
# Top frame
set bmargin 0.84
set tmargin 1.00
plot ...

You might also consider to place the xlabels and numbers only below the
bottom panel, and remove the gap (as done in the - incomplete! - example
above)

I have written a set of scripts for easy gap-free placing of subframes,
maybe it is of some help to you:
