For that I'd let LaTeX do the job and use

  \resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{}

as in

#+LaTeX: \resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
|           |     |     <7> |
|      Site | Ind | -log10.pval |
| 123279713 |   1 | 6.006102 |
| 123279713 |   2 | 6.274326 |
| 123279713 |   4 | 6.210920 |
| 123279710 |   4 | 97.163695 |
| 123279710 |   5 | 208.841892 |
#+LaTeX: }

Best,
Andreas
