You're right as many of the UK overseas territories, etc. have the union jack as part of their flag but a host of other icons and emblems on their flags as well. When you said most number of colors, the flags of Turkmenistan, Uganda and Fiji came to my mind. But there are definitely more. It's hard to quantify really.

Well I was thinking some vexilology [sick] code may forbid from using more than certain # of colors...

SPOILER ALERT:
I had to look it up.
Yes, SAF with 6 has the most color.
Navo's Turkmenistan has a very intricate design but has only 4 colors.

Yeah, South African usually strikes in your mind first when it comes to colourful flag.
Rainbow nation, aptly named.
