How to reduce amount of array values in each iteration in array modifier?

Question

what I mean:

let's say we have a cube with two array modifiers which gives us an array 5x5

what I need:

next array row on Z axis (3x3) right above previous, and next (1x1). Is it possible to do with modifiers or drivers? How?

I think this is impossible ( using the modifier ) , you can use dupliverts — Chebhou

One way to do this is using the particle system set to Grid distribution :

change the particle size / grid resolution /pyramid mesh to get the desired results
in the modifiers tab of the pyramid convert the particles to a real mesh :
