This does the trick! As can be expected, performance drops (by about
40-50%) from a normal AVG() as each row has to be fetched 3 times.
But, this will be perfect when a stored proc is an overkill.

I am still a bit unsure about the aggregate UDFs. Do I understand
correctly that it is not possible at this stage?

Thanks for the help
