This number is useless because the distance the moon is from the sun constantly changes as the moon and the earth trace thru thier orbits. The only number that is relevant is the distance of the moon from the sun during the exact moment of a total solar eclipse.

there is no such number. there's a different one for every eclipse. probably some are above average, some under, right?
