How can I limit count of content object specified type per user?
(for example the user can add only 3 article on site)

I'm not sure how complex solution do you need but if you want to limit only to count but not to count per class you can extend user class with new attribute. Then set default count for all users. In tpl fetch count (see on-line doc for more info) of created objects in the system check that count with with current logged in user attribute then show create input button or hide it. This can work without special operators. If you need something more e.g count per class or let's say limit for whole user group, then you will need to do some PHP coding, since like Kristof wrote this is not possible at the moment.
