Not quite. The method suggested by Andreas computes the result twice. If
there is any randomness in the results (as in the example) you will get a 
different answer in the summary than when the block is later evaluated.

You can use

#+results: the-mean

before 

#+NAME: the-mean
#+begin_src R
mean(x)
#+end_src

which is after 'theanalysis' block.

And if the format is not pleasing add a filter that reformats the result.

It might be better to mark all the blocks in the doc ':eval never'
and ':exports code' or ':exports none' and put blocks before the first 
headline that do all the calcs from noweb references, and put the #+results
lines (if you need them) wherever you want them in the doc. Like so:



--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+TITLE: Test
#+AUTHOR: Michael Weylandt
#+PROPERTY: header-args:R :session *__R__* :exports both


#+NAME: master
#+BEGIN_SRC R :noweb yes :results silent :exports results
<<theanalysis>>
#+END_SRC

* Summary


The mean result was  src_R[:exports results]{mean(x)}

* Analysis, 
We do some complicated calculations: 

#+name: theanalysis
#+BEGIN_SRC R :eval never :exports code
x <- rnorm(5)
#+END_SRC

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

IMO, needing ':exports results' for inline src blocks is a bug not a
feature. 

HTH,

Chuck
