Hello Ryan, There are no hard limits on the account level. However, the reports center backend will have trouble running reports based on the number of rows that would be returned. Factors like the date range, the number of elements in each account, and obviously the number of subaccounts can all affect the number of rows that will be returned. If you exceed the capacity that the reports backend can currently support, you'll either get a failure at the time the report is scheduled or the report will process for a while and then go into a Failed status. Zero-impression Keyword reports are especially heavyweight, so you might find that you can request a smaller amount of data for those types of reports than others.
What I'd recommend you do is to first try running your report with crossClient set to true and without specifying anything for the clientEmails value in your DefinedReportJob. This will result in a cross-client report scheduled for all the sub-accounts under your MCC. If that completes successfully in a reasonable amount of time then you should be good to go in the future with that method. If your report fails then you'll want to do one of two things: either break your report into X smaller reports, and list 1/X of the sub- accounts in each DefinedReportJob's clientEmails attribute. Alternatively, you could fundamentally change your AdWords account structure and move form the one MCC->many AdWords account topology to something like one MCC (with your tokens)->a few sub MCCs->many AdWords accounts. Then you can schedule cross-client reports in each sub-MCC without having to specify the client emails that you're interested in. The other advantage of changing your account structure like that would be that each sub-MCC would have its own separate Reports Center that could retain the last 15 reports, rather scheduling X number of reports that all go into a single MCC's Reports Center. Changing your AdWords account structure, especially when there are many sub-accounts, can be fairly time consuming. If you have a relationship with an AdWords account representative already you might want to engage him/her for assistance if you decide to go that path.
