I have data similiar to this:

Account Count TotalSessions
abc 4 12
xyz 2 12
zzz 6 12

..search | stats count by Account | eventstats sum(count) as TotalSessions

How do I get the calculation for TotalSessions/ # of Accounts? i.e. 12 divided by 3 in this example.

Thanks for the quick solution. I'm now getting multiple instances for the calculation of AvgSessionPerAccount. How do I only show one result since all are the same?
