This is the thread that discusses the AA oneworld awards:

There were some changes to the rules in 2008 regarding calculation of mileage.
PS. I debated whether to post this in the AA forum or the OW forum - but since the agents insisted that these were OW rules, I thought it best to post here.
These are AA rules for an "AA oneworld Award" and so are probably better discussed in the above-referenced thread. Good luck with the trip.
