It sounds to me like you have the right start.
The temporal methods they use to find pitch is speech processing will
help to take you the rest of the way.
a] Find DFT X=DiscreteFourierTransform[xlist]
b] Auto Correlate the spectra XCORR=Correlate[Abs[X]]
c] Find maximum in XCORR and that is the period
To find the offset or phase .. that is a different story !
Hope that is a little teleporter forward.
