Try this.
ResultSetMetaData meta = resultset.getMetaData();
Integer columncount = meta.getColumnCount();
int count = 1 ; // start counting from 1 always
String[] columnNames = new String[columncount];
while(count<=columncount){
columnNames [count-1] = meta.getColumnLabel(count);
count++;
}
Since here your expecting is to get the columns alias instead of column name, so you have to use ResultSetMetaData.getColumnLabel instead of ResultSetmetaData.getColumnName.
