Try this:

If(Modulo(Row(), 3) == 1,
    Col Mean(:Column 1, Ceiling(Row() / 3))
)

Re: How to get a average for part of column data by using formula

@jasongao
     One way would be something like this: 

     You will need to extract your data from column into a matrix. You can do that using << get as matrix command. 

Mat = [2,3,4,50,60,70] ; 

NewMat = Transpose(Shape(Mat,(N Rows(Mat) * N Cols(Mat))/3,3 )); 

V Mean((NewMat));
