It depends on what RTW ticket you have and if the ticket is partly used or not. I believe if the first segment has not yet been flown, you're eligble for a full refund minus some sort of service charge. Sometimes this could be the first continent.
If the ticket has begun already, I think it's much more difficult for a refund. I think they'll calculate each segment you've flown as a one-way ticket, add them all up; then give you back the difference. Of course, it depends on the type of RTW ticket.

and tfung was right about his prediction on refunds of partly used Star RTWs.
If you started on your ticket, you take the individual one-way fares and subtract it from the RTW price. If you travelled enough, you might owe them money for a refund!
