You misread a bit. A rereduce does take multiple values as inputs. The note about just recalculating the average was that you can do it server side to avoid it client side. Ie, exactly like you're doing, but add in the final calculation to avoid it client side. The reduce.js example has an explicit example of doing this with the standard deviation where it always calculates a 'partial' standard deviation. HTH, Paul Davis
