The l3-binned format supports mean and variance calculations, but median is not readily available (see
$SEADAS/build/src/libsdsbin/stat_calculate.c for details). Loading l3 binned data in the SeaDAS GUI requires a map projection, so make it a bit tricky if you want values for particular bin. If the OP wants bin-by-bin results,
/build/src/l3bindum/l3bindump.c can be modified to compute the mean, variance, and standard deviation, or the IDL code from
http://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/idllibrary.cgi can be used.
