Hi Babak,
I get x axis ticks at 10, 5, 3.33333, ... with the above code, which is 
expected. I think you want something like:

plot(1:10,axes=FALSE,frame.plot=TRUE)
axis(1,at=1:10,labels=10/seq(1:10))

What you have done is interesting. By specifying xlim=c(10,1) you have 
reversed the order of whatever labels you pass to the "axis" function.
