I have never had an aborted/rejected landing in a commercial aircraft. I have had a rejected take-off on an L-1011 once.
My record is 2 missed approaches before I landed - Cessna 172 into DAB (daytona beach, fl). We shot the GPS16 followed by the VOR16, both down to minimums before we got the ILS7 and broke out around 250 feet. This is NO JOKE, minimums were 230 for the approach.
