Must be more than 5. I've got 7 and still have no average.

Update: Looks like it's 10 reviews needed now...

Update 2: Hmmm, also looks like a free app got an average with just over 5 ratings. I wonder if there's a different average needed depending on the payment scale

Sadly, it is not that number either. We have over 25 reviews on our app since the update and it is now six days and it still says "Not enough reviews". Not sure what is the situation.
