I'm probably using the \starttable incorrectly:

with this code I only get only *one* horizontal line in the header

\starttable[|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|l|r|r|r|r|][bodyfont=9pt]
\NC step\NC frac\NC ival\NC  \NC\Use{4}[cI]{freq

\stoptable




with this code I get two horizontal lines, but the second is too short.

with this code I get two horizontal lines, with correct length, but 
above the wrong columns

There is (probably) a correct way to solve this.

My suggestion is to switch to either natural table or extreme tables but 
it seems to me there is a problem with the division lines which always 
leave an empty column afterwards.

The following example should add horizontal lines above the first and 
third column but this setting results in an error. When I omit the last 
\DC the error disappears but as can be seen in the output the second 
line appears above the fourth column.
