Previous versions of ResStock let you specify EnergyPlus output variables to report beyond ResStock's default variables, using the PAT GUI. Examples include things like Zone Air Temperature for each thermal zone. It looks like newer versions of ResStock let you specify a more detailed output using the simulation_output_report key in the yml.

example include_timeseries_component_loads: true include_timeseries_zone_temperatures: true

However, it is possible these aren't the EnergyPlus variables you are looking for. You would need to look at what the reporting measure (specifically ReportSimulationOutput) is doing to process E+ ouput variables into the ResStock output fields.

The ruby file for Report Simulation Output is located at restock\resources\hpxml-measures\ReportSimulationOutput

You can also add your own reporting measures as long as they "work within the ResStock workflow."

If you want to report an "average value" writing your own reporting measure could be your best bet. That, or post-process your results in excel or pandas or whatever other tool you want to use.
