try:
    cols = len( text[0] ) # Find out how many columns there are (assuming each 
row has the same number of columns)
except IndexError:
    raise #  This will make sure you can see the error while developing; 
          #  replace with whatever is appropriate for your application
results = []
for idx in xrange( cols ):
    results.append( 0 ) # Initialize an array to zero value with the correct 
number of columns
                        # results = [ 0, 0, 0 ]  for 3 columns
for line in text: # Check each row
    for col_idx, field in enumerate( line ): # check each column
        if token in field: 
            # Or possibly if token==field, not sure exactly what kind of 
comparison you need.
            results[col_idx] += 1 # token found so increment count for that 
column


This is a simple to understand, brute-force solution. It is not very efficient 
and might be slow for large amounts of data.
