So, the text goes: "...whilst an enemy unit is within Dread range of the bearer, each time a model flees from that unit, the bearer regains 1 lost wound (to a maximum of 3 regained wounds per phase)."

Just to double check, is it max 3 regained wounds per phase per ENEMY UNIT, or just 3 max?

For example, let's say three guardsmen squads are within dread range, all three fail their morale. From the first squad, two guardsmen flee, from the second three, and from the third four.

So does the knight regain 2, then 3, and then 3 wounds, for a total of 8, or does the knight choose one of the units to "feed" from?

If it is one unit, nowhere does it say that it selects the "target" unit before so he just waits and sees which unit will have the most runaways, and then selects that unit?

It's 3 wounds max, doesn't matter how many units are in range.

JNA has it correct.

It says "(to a maximum of 3 regained wounds per phase)." so this limits it to 3 wounds per phase total, it does not mention per unit, so it is not per unit.

As for your question "or does the knight choose one of the units to 'feed' from?" I am not exactly sure what this means. the rule does not mention feeding or selecting a unit at all. Enemy units that are within range flee, and the unit with the relic gets wounds back, there is no selecting anything.

If there are 4 units in range, and they all have one model flee, the unit with the relic would gain 3 wounds that phase max. You don't have to select a unit since it does not say to select a unit.

The key is each time a model flees from that unit, the bearer regains 1 lost wound (to a maximum of 3 regained wounds per phase). So the maximum you can gain is 3 per phase. You get to regain lost wounds when that happens "...whilst an enemy unit is within Dread range of the bearer".
