Thanks, I did as you suggested, but got a different error telling me that
mris_anatomical_stats cannot be used with fsaverage as it is an average
subject.

You can try the following "hack": convert the annotation to a series of labels, and then use 'mris_curvature_stats' on these label files. It will dump a bunch of curvature-related measures, but you can ignore these and just extract the surface area measures that it also generates.

$>mri_annotation2label --subject <SUBJ> --hemi lh --annotation lh.test.aparc.annot --labelbase base

This will create a series of label files, base-XXX.label in the <SUBJ>/label directory. You can use 'mris_curvature_stats' on each of these label files. Pass it any curvature file, and just grep for "ROI":

$>mris_curvature_stats -l base-000.label <SUBJ> <hemi> curv | grep ROI
