Hi I will admit my comment was a guess :), since I have never faced the problem, but people do visualize high dimensional data By projecting it to 2d http://www.ggobi.org/ and to 3d - http://www.cs.earlham.edu/~mccoyjo/project/. I have never tried either of the above softwares , but ggobi seems promising. You might be able to find more resources on the web.
