RTFM (or, indeed, my previous message on the subject).

To recap: 'average' writes two items to the subfile, both having the same name.
The first is subtotal, the second is a count. They can't be separately
referenced and are therefore of little use. You need to put subtotal in the
subfile, and a separate item to give you the count - eg

def recordcount int*4 = 1

rep sum ... recordcount subtotal ...

Then on the next pass the average is subtotal / recordcount.
