There are ways of calculating an average without storing all values making up that average. Cant remember the maths, but it only needs to store a couple of figures to do it. Then for each new reading apply the correct algorithm and update the stored figures. It is how calculators with an average fuction work. The most logical would be the total and number of readings, but there may be other ways with a consuption figure.

However, the larger the number of readings the less effect each new one is going to make to the average, so the less the figure changes.
