This sounds like a bioassay problem with a quantal response. There is a large literature on this problem. It can be solved using maximum likelihood estimation (i.e., the binomial response with a mean probability given by a functional relationship with respect to your 'x' values. SYSTAT will solve this sort of problem, providing that you can write an explicit relationship for the expected response probability in terms of the "x" values -- in fact, EXCEL ver 3.0 or higher (with the solver add in) can also be set up to solve such a problem.
