Calculate weekly average from daily measure?

I'm having trouble with a measure that works well on a daily level - but sums at a weekly level - and I would prefer to see average at a weekly level.

 

This measure works good for daily:

CY Sales Store Count = CALCULATE(COUNT(NetSales_And_Traffic[Net Sales]),FILTER(NetSales_And_Traffic,NetSales_And_Traffic[Net Sales]>0))
 
And the measure works for weekly but sums the store counts.
 
I need a measure that averages the daily store counts for the week.
 
Something like: Avg Weekly Store Count Per Day = AVERAGE([CY Sales Store Count]), but that is not an option because you can't average a measure?
 
Sample data below with current result and desired result.
 
Any help in the right direction would be appreciated. Thank you!

  Current Result: CY Store Count 7
  Desired Result: Avg Weekly Store Count Per Day 1

@Quinnie2017 use AVERAGEX

 

Avg Weekly = AVERAGEX( VALUES (Table[Date] ), [CY Sales Store Count])

@Quinnie2017 correct, values give you a table of unique values of the column you have in the values function.

This works - thanks!

 

To make sure I understand what DAX is doing:

 

It is looking at the number of values in [Date], which in this case is 7 because it is one week, and making that 7 the denominator.  And the numerator is [CY Sales Store Count].  The end result it the average of [CY Sales Store Count] / 7.

 

Is that right?
