It could be used in a context where one is trying to describe something that is mediocre or typical, but it lacks clarity and is not a common expression.
Example: "In this competition, we are looking for anything but a jar of average; we want something exceptional."
Alternatives: "a container of mediocrity" or "a measure of typicality".
