Need function that will work in Excel 2003 like "Countifs" in 2007

[RD]

The following is an example of my database. I am looking for a formula that
will provide me a count of the number of times a "Rank" is less than 20
(<20) at the end of each row.

Stat Rank Stat Rank Stat Rank Stat Rank
20.82 48 19.18 86 24.65 6 23.20 16
23 62 12 6 18 31 17 24
28 18 24 37 29 14 25 28
0.33 38 0.80 24 0.79 25 0.57 31

The answer for row one should be "1"; row 2 should be "1"; row 3 should be
"0"; etc. I don't know if I'm being clear in the description of my needs.
At the end of each row I would like a formula that finds the heading of
"Rank" and evaluates the cell reference for that heading to determine whether
or not it is less than 20 (<20). If it is, then I would like to have it
included in the count, if not, then discard it.

Note: I was able to achieve this outcome when I used "Countifs" in Excel
2007, but now I only have access to Excel 2003 and the "Countifs" formula is
not compatible with this older version.

Thanks for your assistance.

The answers you gave for your examples are wrong!

If you're using 8 columns, your returns for the 4 rows should be:

2, 1, 2, 0

With data entered in A1 to H5, with headers in Row 1,
This formula entered in I2, and copied down, will give the returns I
mentioned:

=SUMPRODUCT((A$1:H$1="Rank")*(A2:H2<20))
