##UPDATE I just re read your message and noticed this wont work for you. Sorry. This have been doing the trick for me. For the html template: 
<table>
    <thead>
    <tr>
        <!-- tmpl_loop name="fields" -->
            <th><!-- tmpl_var name="field" --></th>            
        <!-- /tmpl_loop -->
    </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
    <!-- tmpl_loop name="data" -->
    <tr>
        <!-- tmpl_loop name="cols" -->
            <td><!-- tmpl_var name="value" --></td>
        <!-- /tmpl_loop -->
    </tr>
    <!-- /tmpl_loop -->
    </tbody>
</table>

And, the perl part: 
    my @fields = qw(your columns names here);
    $object->get_all(%params);
    while (my $obj = $object->get_next){
        my @row = map {{value => $obj->$_}} @fields;
        push @data, {cols => \@row};
    }
    $template->param(fields =>  \@fields);
    $template->param(data => \@data);

Hope this helps.
