  convert image image image image....   -average  result.png

You can use -sigmodial-contrast  to adjust the result for a logrithimic
brightness rather than linear.

If you just what the white spots without your brightness requirment
'screen'  (negated multiply)  the images together

  convert image image image image.... \
          -compose screen -background black  -flatten   result.png

The background color is needed to ensure it does not effect the result
of the multiple image composite 'flatten'

See IM examples... Mosaics of Multiple Images
   http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/mosaics/

Average is at the bottom. composite  flatten is just a bit above that.
