To make it a bit easier for programming, you can do this without a
table/array - something I did when doing the firmware for a piece of
testing electronics with a very small microcontroller.

Keep two averages, one for the last 100 seconds, and one for the last
5~10.  Rembering that the data rate drops off towards the end, which
might trigger things if we keep the peak average.
