It is not important that the datalists and tick labels are equal
length. What matters is for the tick locations and tick labels to be
equal length. You also need to call ax.set_xticks in addition to
ax.set_xticklabels.
But since you are working with dates, I think you'll have better luck
setting a custom tick locator and formatter, as described in
http:/matplotlib.sf.net/matplotlib.ticker.html,
http:/matplotlib.sf.net/matplotlib.dates.html, and
http:/matplotlib.sf.net/examples/date_demo1.py,
http:/matplotlib.sf.net/examples/date_demo2.py and chapter 5 the users
guide.

Ok, I've added:
p.set_xticks(range(len(graph.sourceReader.headers)))
Is it possible to change the angle of ticks? Right now they are overwriting
each other. When I could change the angle to 45° for example there would be
enough space.

Since I don't know in which format the input data will be I can't use
functions which treat them specifically as dates.
Thanks,
