<para>
Returns the number of columns for the most recent query on the connection
represented by the <parameter>link</parameter> parameter. This function
can be useful when using the <function>maxdb_store_result</function>
function to determine if the query should have produced a non-empty result
set or not without knowing the nature of the query.
