In response to the question - How are you?, we can say "I'm OK" or "I'm alright". Can we also say "I'm average/ satisfactory" using the words "average" and "satisfactory" as synonyms for "OK"? Also please share other one-word synonyms of "OK" that would be appropriate responses for "How are you?".
Thank you
No, those responses sound odd. and unnatural. You can say eg Fine eg OK.

In most cases, the person who asks you 'How are you?'i sn't interested in how you are. It's just a friendly and casual greeting.
