Thanks radoulov,
I tried your solution but it doesnt seem to catch it. What I actually want to write the average of the 9th column in each of my stat files to a new file as a single column. I have 250 files in all (in the same folder) numbered stat.1000, stat 1001, stat.1002 ....stat.1250
Could you please help with this?

LSTAT(3) 1 LSTAT(3)
lstat - Gives information about a file or symbolic link
SYNOPSIS
array lstat (string $filename)
DESCRIPTION
Gathers the statistics of the file or symbolic link named by $filename.
PARAMETERS
o $filename
- Path to a file or a symbolic link.
RETURN VALUES
See the manual page for stat(3) for information on the structure of the array that lstat(3) returns. This function is identical to the
stat(3) function except that if the $filename parameter is a symbolic link, the status of the symbolic link is returned, not the status of
the file pointed to by the symbolic link.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Comparison of stat(3) and lstat(3)
<?php
symlink('uploads.php', 'uploads');
// Contrast information for uploads.php and uploads
array_diff(stat('uploads'), lstat('uploads'));
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Information that differs between the two files.
Array
(
[ino] => 97236376
[mode] => 33188
[size] => 34
[atime] => 1223580003
[mtime] => 1223581848
[ctime] => 1223581848
[blocks] => 8
)
ERRORS
/EXCEPTIONS
Upon failure, an E_WARNING is emitted.
NOTES
Note
The results of this function are cached. See clearstatcache(3) for more details.
Tip
As of PHP 5.0.0, this function can also be used with some URL wrappers. Refer to "Supported Protocols and Wrappers" to determine
which wrappers support stat(3) family of functionality.
