What is a Segment/Transfer/Stop?

One a OnewWorld RTW Business Airfare, QANTAS have not been able to explain what they count as a segment/stop/transfer etc.

eg. In the USA I get 6 segments, but QANTAS says if I spend less than 24 hours in one place, it is a transfer, meaning I could bounce around the USA, or in Australia on my way home, and just go to 10 citys in couple of days, earn all these status points???

Also, in my Coutry of Origin, I am leaving from BNE (via SYD) to HKK.

Coming in, I am LON (via Sing) to Syd... Can I then take flights from Syd to ADL, MEL, PER etc, and if I am in any of those places less than 24 hours, can I just do this forever?? What are the restrictions?
