if the data set is visible in your session, (say it is data set BGlib.mem1)
then the session knows all this information you seek and it is available
in views of the internal data dictionary - see sashelp.vtable & sashelp.vcolumn,
or proc sql can efficiently deliver it, like
proc sql;
  create table dsinfo as select * from dictionary.tables
   where libname = 'BGLIB' and memname = 'MEM1' ;
  create table varinfo as select * from dictionary.columns
   where libname = 'BGLIB' and memname = 'MEM1' ;
  %let numVar = &sqlobs;
quit;
In v8.1 the table name must be queried in upper case
