If you aren't getting the reset link on your account then you don't have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account, and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions - you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620 -

Click here for information. If the option to have the answers emailed to you isn't available or doesn't work(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section of that article.

Hi I've been wanting to reset my security questions but I don't have a rescue email address what should I do?
HI,
Get a secondary email from a service like Google or Yahoo (something that is not going to disappear like an ISP one might if you change services).
Add it to the Apple ID page.
