How to search the average per item per day?

I want to get the average per day per item...

e.g. Getting the total count per item is easy:

stats count(Order) as TotalOrders by ProductCategory

But I can't get the hang of adding time based searches into the mix!
i.e. Average number of Orders per day per ProductCategory?

To get:

ProductCategory    TotalOrders AverageOrdersPerDay
Fruit                 120            14
Veg                    12             1

Works a treat, but how can I specify the number of decimal places for the result?

Thanks.

Found it, added the following to the end:
| eval AverageOrdersPerDay=round(AverageOrdersPerDay, 2)
