ospfd won't change an existing static route (including the default route).
You would need to remove the default route on your internal routers (i.e.
route delete default;rm /etc/mygate) and just have them learn a default
from OSPF.

It's normal (though not a requirement) to use an IP address here.

You're missing the backbone (area 0.0.0.0); for this setup I don't see
the point in having >1 area, you should be able to merge it all down into
0.0.0.0.
In order to track carp state, you should be using the carp interfaces
and not the physical ("carpdev") interfaces.
As with bgpd (and dhcpd and others), the ospfd manual page describes
the implementation without going into detail about the protocol; if you
haven't found them yet, routergod.com's articles about OSPF aren't bad
as an introduction; http://www.routergod.com/sevenofnine/ and
http://routergod.com/sevenofnine/ospf_part_2.html
