What happened: While at ORD I experienced a delay that would have caused me to miss my connection in SEA (to DFW...yeah, taking the long way home). So AA accommodated me with a non-stop ORD-DFW. A few days later I called AA to inquire if they would grant me mileage for original routing. AA wouldn't do that (not that I was expecting it, but no harm in asking).
Compensation: 1000 miles. I did not request this. AAgent said that was what she could do, rather than originally routed mileage.
You need to read the 'involuntary reroute / original routing credit request' thread for next time!
