I've been playing this website for a bit, but I still don quite get what the most average stat is, is it like the most average in all stats, political, economic and personal freedoms, what is it?

Averageness is roughly the opposite of Ideological Radicality.

Oh, one of the stats in a pair of another just the opposite, that makes sense now, ok

This is wrong.

Holland, your first interpretation of "Averageness" is correct. It measures how close all your stats are to the world averages.

Averageness can change without you answering issues (sauce) and hence it cannot be the opposite of a stat that only changes when you answer issues. The change without you answering issues is a direct result of the world averages changing.

MUCH MUCH LATER EDIT:
I was a bit harsh; it's been pointed out to me that Averageness is the opposite of Ideological Radicality - which means Ideological Radicality is a measurement of how far away you are from the world average.

This is great insight. I’m new and this makes more sense.
