"Average" is in almost all contexts "mean".  For example, dictionary.com says:

noun
1.  a quantity, rating, or the like that represents or approximates an arithmetic mean

If you really want to be deliberately ambiguous, you have to go with a complex technical term like "measure of central tendency".

But since you asked, let me Google all the data for you:

Sen. Grassley, Chuck [R-IA]       born September 17, 1933
Sen. Feinstein, Dianne [D-CA]     born June 22, 1933
Sen. Cornyn, John [R-TX]          born February 2, 1952
Sen. Whitehouse, Sheldon [D-RI]   born October 20, 1955

There.  Feel free to any statistical measures you like.  Report any interesting findings here.  :-)
