COMMENTS
The median of a multiset is either the middle part (for odd length), or the average of the two middle parts (for even length).

For example, row n = 9 counts the following partitions:
(7,1,1) (5,2,2) (3,3,3) (4,4,1) . . . . (9)
(6,1,1,1) (6,2,1) (4,3,2)
(3,3,1,1,1) (3,2,2,2) (5,3,1)
(4,2,1,1,1) (4,2,2,1)
(5,1,1,1,1) (4,3,1,1)
(3,2,1,1,1,1) (2,2,2,2,1)
(4,1,1,1,1,1) (3,2,2,1,1)
(2,2,1,1,1,1,1)
(3,1,1,1,1,1,1)
(2,1,1,1,1,1,1,1)
(1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1)
MATHEMATICA
Table[Length[Select[IntegerPartitions[n], Median[#]==k&]], {n, 15}, {k, n}]
CROSSREFS
Column k=1 is A027336(n+1).
For mean instead of median we have A058398, see also A008284, A327482.
Row sums are A325347.
The mean statistic is ranked by A326567/A326568.
Including half-steps gives A359893.
The odd-length case is A359902.
The median statistic is ranked by A360005(n)/2.
First appearances of medians are ranked by A360006, A360007.
A000041 counts partitions, strict A000009.
A027193 counts odd-length partitions, strict A067659, ranked by A026424.
A067538 counts partitions w/ integer mean, strict A102627, ranks A316413.
A240219 counts partitions w/ the same mean as median, complement A359894.
