You are far better calling up BA and speaking with an operator who can see all oneworld availability, unfortunately none of the airlines present it in entireity (QF does it best at present)
I primarily use my AA miles for same-day or next-day mileage tickets and a lot of it has involved ARN-LHR. Most of the time I have had no problem getting seats on the BA ARN-LHR flights and this is one of my most frequented routes, dozens of times a year for years now. Even a few weeks before the flight is often pretty good. It's AA on LHR-JFK that has increasingly been the problem.
