That you can't is really the point. If you could, so could an attacker.
Counting failed logins never struck me as a very good idea. Any attacker who knows you have Pam_Tally on can disable all your logins at the drop of a hat.
Are you logging in with ssh? Maybe they'd allow you to use ssh keys to login, with a password on the key.
