Hmm, you may do such mathematics within an export script, which can create for example a CSV text file, which provides all the related data like filename and the other calculated data, for later import.

As a starting point ... to calculate average bitrate ...

$filename($getEnv('USERPROFILE')'\Desktop\Mp3tag.Report.Bitrate.txt',UTF-8)

$loop(%\_path%)$puts(SUMBITRATE,$add($get(SUMBITRATE),%\_bitrate%))$puts(SUMTRACKS,$if(%\_bitrate%,$add($get(SUMTRACKS),1),$get(SUMTRACKS)))$loopend()  
'Max Tracks : '%\_max\_counter%  
'Sum Bitrate : '$get(SUMBITRATE)  
'Sum Tracks (BR): '$get(SUMTRACKS)  
'Average Bitrate: '$div($get(SUMBITRATE),$get(SUMTRACKS))
