What server are you talking about? There are about a hundred or so to 
choose from.

It's possible. If the numbers aren't easily accessible through some 
other means you could write a multiplexing port-forwarding daemon that 
speaks FTP and have it count the number of unsuccessful logins to be 
reported whenever some special user logs on or some such. It's just a 
question of how much time and/or money you want to spend on it.
