Examples
For n=23 ("321" in factorial base representation, A007623), all the digits are maximal for their positions (they occur on the "maximal slope"), thus there is only one distinct digit slope present and a(23)=1. Also, for the 23rd permutation in the ordering A060117, [2341], there is just one drop, as p[4] = 1 < 4. For n=29 ("1021"), there are three nonzero digits, where both 2 and the rightmost 1 are on the maximal slope, while the most significant 1 is on the "sub-sub-sub-maximal", thus there are two occupied slopes in total, and a(29) = 2. In the 29th permutation of A060117, [23154], there are two drops as p[3] = 1 < 3 and p[5] = 4 < 5. For n=37 ("1201"), there are three nonzero digits, where the rightmost 1 is on the maximal slope, 2 is on the submaximal, and the most significant 1 is on the "sub-sub-sub-maximal", thus there are three occupied slopes in total, and a(37) = 3. In the 37th permutation of A060117, [51324], there are three drops at indices 2, 4 and 5.

Formula
From Antti Karttunen, Aug 11-21 2016: (Start)
The following formula reflects the original definition of computing the average, with a few unnecessary steps eliminated:
a(n) = 1/s * Sum_{i=1..s} ((p[i]-i) modulo s), where p is the permutation of rank n as ordered in the list A060117, and s is its size (the number of its elements) computed as s = 1+A084558(n).
a(n) = Sum_{i=1..s} [p[i]
a(n) = 1/s * Sum_{i=1..s} ((i-p[i]) modulo s). [If inverse permutations from list A060118 are used, then we just flip the order of difference that is used in the first formula].
Following formulas do not need intermediate construction of permutation lists:
Other identities and observations. For all n >= 0:
a(n!) = 1.
a(A033312(n)) = 1 for all n > 1.
a(n) = a(A153880(n)) = a(A255411(n)). [The shift-operations do not change the number of distinct slopes.]
a(A275804(n)) = A060130(A275804(n)). [A275804 gives all the positions where this coincides with A060130.]

Examples
For n=6 ("100" in factorial base representation A007623) there are two digits in interval [1..A084558(6)] = [1..3] that are not used, namely 2 and 3, thus a(6)=2. For n=12 ("200") there are also two digits in interval [1..3] that are not used, namely 1 and 3, thus a(12)=2. For n=23 ("321") all the digits in interval [1..3] are in use, thus a(23)=0.

These are averages (number of balls) in siteswap-patterns constructed like in A060498, but with 0's replaced by the length of the pattern.
