So far, with openwrt and ath9k / ath9k_htc, i've found the "tx bitrate" (or MCS level) a fair indicator of the link capacity. if it says "65.0 MBit/s MCS 7" i cannot tell exactly how much goodput it will have, but i can be pretty confident that it will be better than when it says "6.5 MBit/s MCS 1"
This info is pretty useless since the reported tx rate is the rate used to send the last packet. If the last packet is sent via broadcast the tx rate will show the broadcast tx rate.
