The following should work for you, although you may need to manipulate
your data into the correct matrix form.
 
In[4]:=
<<Statistics`LinearRegression`
In[12]:=
data = Table[{Random[],Random[]},{100}];
In[13]:=
Regress[data,{1,x},x,OutputList->RSquared,OutputControl->NoPrint]
Out[13]=
RSquared -> 0.0712578
