I understand your point, Dimiter. And I couldn't think of anything better too (would be following this thread for ideas). However, how big is your user base? If it is not into thousands, can't they learn the meaning of the numbers within triangles (a tooltip can help) over time? If a common metaphor doesn't exist, perhaps you should build one. My only suggestion would be to show a slightly offset triangle under the numbered triangle for secondary and tertiary sort columns. This way you have additional visual cue that the sorting is not primary.
