I am curious - do you use the Gregorian (Christian) calendar? Because I understand that in the Islamic calendar (does it have a different official name?), the average age is more like 29.5 days.
Anyway, in the Gregorian calendar, the integer number of elapsed years can be calculated as follows:
int((val(dtos(date1)) - val(dtos(date2))) / 1e4)
