Another Racket solution.

(define (average numbers) (/ (apply + numbers) (length numbers)))

;; numbers must be already sorted.
(define (median numbers)
  (define i (floor (/ (sub1 (length numbers)) 2)))
  (if (odd? (length numbers))
    (list-ref numbers i)
    (average (take (drop numbers i) 2))))

;; Lines containing numbers must not have whitespace.
;; Blank lines are ignored.
(define numbers 
  (with-input-from-file "data.txt"  (lambda()
    (sort (filter-map string->number (sequence->list (in-lines))) <))))

(printf "range: ~a .. ~a\n" (first numbers) (last numbers))
(printf "average: ~a\n" (average numbers))
(printf "median: ~a\n" (median numbers))
(printf "below average: ~a\n"
  (length (filter (curry > (average numbers)) numbers)))
(printf "above average: ~a\n"
  (length (filter (curry < (average numbers)) numbers)))
