There's no information about her age. But "Sakine Meiko", which was has Meiko's much younger voice is 16 year old :D so, Meiko is older than it.

if vocaloid meiko were the same age as her voice provider when she was released, she would be about 26 yrs :o

I believe Meiko to be around 20, just as Luka and Kaito.
