Perhaps you have the time set to a longer interval than the attempts?
In many cases people set up denyhosts when they really don't need it.
Do you remotely log in from only a single address? Or just a few addresses? If so, just put ALL: ALL in /etc/hosts.deny and put your allowed IP addresses into /etc/hosts.allow. Then everything will be denied by default except for the addresses you have specifically allowed. No need to run denyhosts at all in that situation.
