I have data for two orders, one with two line items and one with structured as follows. What is the PowerPivot for Excel DAX expression that would give me the order-average quantity (4.5+4.0 / 2 = 4.3) rather than the line-item-average quantity (8+1+1+1+8+9+2+3 / 8 = 4.1)?
Order Line Item Qty 195436 544841 8.0 195436 544842 1.0 237657 514255 1.0 237657 514260 1.0 237657 521894 8.0 237657 521895 9.0 237657 521896 2.0 237657 521897 3.0

Create the following measures:
Avg1:=AVERAGE(Table1[Qty])
Avg2:=AVERAGEX(VALUES(Table1[Order]),[Avg1])
Essentially, you want an average of the averages for each order.
Obviously, you could give the measures more meaningful names.
