Sorry this response is a year late, but I did find an answer that works for me.

var myegiftcardstable = $j('#myegiftcardstable').dataTable(
            {
                "bAutoWidth": false,
                "bServerSide": true,
                "bProcessing": true,
                "sAjaxSource": "<?php echo $this->getUrl('myegiftcard/egiftcard/getMyEGiftCards') ?>",
                "iDisplayLength": 10,
                "bSearchable": false,
                "bSortable"  : true,
                "bFilter": true,
                "bLengthChange": false,
                "sPaginationType": "full_numbers",
                "aoColumns": [
                        // Column index begins at 0
                        { "sClass": "a-right", "aTargets": [ 2 ] },
                        { "sClass": "width_120", "aTargets": [ 3 ] }
                ],
            }
        );

Here is the documentation on usage.

Styling should be done using css :

#myegiftcardstable th { text-align: center }
#myegiftcardstable td { text-align: right }
