How to perform __eq__, __gt__ etc on int object in Python?

I am working on a class that requires multiple rules to validate against e.g. if certain pattern appears more than, equal, less than to a certain number. I have the output of this regular expression I am validating in a list and checking the length of the list. Now how do I call one of these methods (__gt__, __eq__ etc) dynamically?

My approach:

func = getattr(len(re.findall('\d+', 'password1'), method_name) #method_name 
#can be any one of the values __eq__, __gt__).

if func(desired_length):
    print ":validated"
else:
    raise Exception("Not sufficient complexity")

For example, for method_name='__eq__' and desired_length=1, the above will result True. For method_name='__gt__' and desired_length=1, the above will result False (if a number appears in this string more than once).

But I realize int objects don't really implement these methods. Is there any way I can achieve this?
