The first thing I'd say is please put your array loops inside your read loop. You gain a lot of efficiency that way. The solution I came up with was (and I'm probably abusing some variables):

#!/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
package main;

my @averages = ();
my $count = 0;
while (my $data = <DATA>) {
    my @cols = split /\,/, $data;
    $count++;
    if ( $count == 1 ) {
        @averages = @cols;
    }
    else {
        for( my $i = 1; $i < scalar @averages; $i++ ) {
        $averages[$i] += $cols[$i];
        }
    }
}

for( my $i = 1; $i < scalar @averages; $i++ ) {
    print $averages[$i]/$count, "\n";
}

If you want to deal with irregular length CSV, you'll need some logic to handle the different counts per column. Something like a push of a $value, $count will be necessary.
