Well, Asperger syndrome specifically gets a cut off mark at about 80, I think. It was a criterium to be of average or above average intelligence in order to be diagnosed with Asperger's.
The entire autistic spectrum taken as a whole, though, you're right that it covers the entire IQ range. I do disagree with wittgenstein that autistics are more creative or intelligent than the rest of the population.
But then again, put a bunch of top tier gifted people in an organisation like Mensa, and what have they accomplished, really?
