There are 2 limiting factors:
weapon type: small things like wands can't have as many sockets as big things, partly because the picture is too small. There is a specific number allowed for each type of weapon
weapon Class and ilvl: there are restrictions on each weapon class (eg axes) of low ilvl. There is one for weapons of 1-24 and one for weapons of 25-39 iirc. ilvl 40+ weapons are not restricted by this factor
If you say what weapon you are interested in someone should be able to tell you the possible socket range
