In a literal sense of "average" where it meant that the majority of star systems is like Sol the answer is "heck no!".
From earlier attempts at assessing such things you'd be lucky to get the 2 dozen worlds of the Gurps Space sector format even if you included terraformable worlds. You might only have circa 100-200 candidate stars for age and melalicity. There's not much resaon to go to another system to get gas gisnts and iceballs.
