I am sure there is likely a simple answer to this, but is the best way to achieve this to simply look for the cheapest flight I can find? I believe every segment gets 500 MQM minimum so a round trip ticket gets me what I need?

Any websites that are helpful? Also, if anyone is familiar with best routes out of DTW, that is likely where I would fly from.
Check out flights to Denver; you can do a same day trip for well under $200 and will enjoy a bit of rollover MQMs to start 2020. Google flights is showing options at $131 for Basic Economy and $178 for Main Cabin. This is what I used 2 years ago to keep my Platinum status and it was well worth the expense.
