Which version of Spark are you using? I just tried the example below on 1.5.1
and it seems to work as expected:
scala> val res = df.groupBy("key").count.agg(min("count"), avg("count"))
res: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = [min(count): bigint, avg(count): double]
scala> res.show
+----------+----------+
|min(count)|avg(count)|
+----------+----------+
| 1| 1.0|
+----------+----------+
scala> res.printSchema
root
|-- min(count): long (nullable = true)
|-- avg(count): double (nullable = true)
