BA and AA are buddies and, as reported on the AA forum, BA gives the fare information to AA, allowing AA to give EQDs on their flights based on fare.

Here's the confirmation with someone who has flown such a ticket. Personally, i dont want to be awarded so few miles on AA with what the fare based method gives, so I credit my AA coded flights to another airline and the BA ones can go to AA based on distance..
