Dear Christophe, I am currently unaware of a column limit... and if there is one, it would cause out-of-memory problems rather than this error message.
I would suggest that there is a) an unexpectedly formed column in your table or b) a bug in the processing code which occurs only for the particular table or c) encoding problems when parsing column names. Since the problem appears already in line 1, I would suggest to look for encoding problems in column names. Perhaps you have a unicode character which causes TeX to bail out? Note that pgfplotstable needs to process the input file in a different way than inputenc. If that is really the cause, you may want to file a bug to sourceforge (preferably with a minimal example) and replace the offending character. You can still view it in the output using the 'column name' style option. Does this help?
