The values are the average distance between the given atom pair over all frames.

Cpptraj can generate 3D data sets (via the 'hist' command, output
xplor or opendx format), but can't yet e.g. combine a series of 2D
data sets to form a 3D data set, although something like that has been
on my to-do list.

Hope this clears things up,
