Maybe I am missing the complexity but I would just add them all up as
you retrieve them (or where you are printing them out) and then when you
finish the loop divide the total by the number of of number you are
averaging over have (i.e this would be 15 if you are taking 15 days).

I'm real sorry to say I don't know the answer to your question unless
there's a php function to get an average (or write one yourself) but
you say you've managed to get a script/process to run in conjunction
with your database every half an hour...how do you do this!? I've been
wanting
I have a cron job that runs on a Unix server that runs a PHP file that
gets a number from a Web site and inserts it into the database.

Oh nuts! I thought there may be some way for a script to tell itself to
re-run over X-period of time or even have some kind of stored procedure
That's exactly what I needed. Thanks. I'm absolutely awful with math
and this is my first time averaging numbers from a database.
