So the example on that page has different numbers of elements in each 
column.

That rough tree structure at the top represents a tab in the layout with 
three columns that has 3 portlets in column 1, 2 in column 2 and 3 in 
column 3. The number of entries in each row is calculated by the number 
of places a portlet could be moved to, which are denoted by the 
asterisks in that tree. So the number of columns in the json table is 
equal to the number of portlets + the number of columns in the layout.
