The number of ways to express primorial p_n# = A002110(n) as (prime(i) + prime(j))/2 when (prime(i) - prime(j))/2 also is prime.
Let p_n < q <= prime(pi(p_n#)), with pi(p_n#) = A000849(n). All such primes q are coprime to primorial p_n# since they are larger than the greatest prime factor of p_n#. One of the two primes counted by a(n) must be a prime q, the other a prime r = (2p_n# - q). Further, (r - q) must be prime to be counted by a(n). Therefore an efficient method of computing a(n) begins with generating the range of prime totatives prime(n + 1) <= q <= prime(pi(p_n#)) of primorial p_n#, the number of which is given by A048862(n).
a(n) < A048862(n) < A000849(n) for n > 2.

			a(3) = 5 since there are 5 ways to express A002110(3) = 30 as (prime(i) + prime(j))/2 with (prime(i) - prime(j))/2 also prime:
  (53 + 7)/2 = 30, (53 - 7)/2 = 46/2 = 23
  (47 + 13)/2 = 30, (47 - 13)/2 = 34/2 = 17
  (43 + 17)/2 = 30, (43 - 17)/2 = 26/2 = 13
  (41 + 19)/2 = 30, (41 - 19)/2 = 22/2 = 11
  (37 + 23)/2 = 30, (37 - 23)/2 = 14/2 = 7.
