BTW, there are several "illegal" AS numbers that can be used, but like
"private" IP address blocks, they aren't supposed to be routed on the
Internet. For the life of me, I don't recall the RFC that designates the
numbers.

If you are thinking of participating in global Internet routing, you
really can't make up very much. The AS number and address space will
be assigned to you, and you will need to justify them. You can then
work out your own routing policy, which I strongly suggest you
register. Each of the address registries above maintains a routing
registry (not sure about APNIC).
Why do you need an AS? What problem will it solve?
