About the average: The two common scenarios are "micro" and "macro" average (I think "macro" is typically the default in scikit-learn) -- you calculated the macro average in your example.
To further explain the difference betw. macro and micro, let's consider a simple 2-class scenario and calculate the precision a) macro-average precision: (PRE1 + PRE2) / 2 b) micro-average precision: (TP1+TP2)/(TP1+TP2+FP1+FP2) Hope that helps.
