I booked yesterday. I used a Southwest Rapid Rewards voucher to get to Los Angeles for US$2.50, and after checking several booking sites, the best price I found for my other legs (LAX->CBR, MEL->SYD, SYD->BOS) was via Orbitz on Qantas and United for US$1675.
I did find one problem. Many sites have a button where they'll send your flight information to other sites to compare prices. It did not work with a multi-city itinerary. Instead of a trip like this:
Monday A->B
Wednesday C->D
Friday D->A
The "compare other sites" results were for a simple round-trip itinerary,
Monday A->B
Wednesday B->A
Check the results carefully if you use a feature like this.

I've wanted to visit Australia for years, and a TAM plus those two extra days made it irresistible.
