PokerStars - $0.10 NL - Holdem - 8 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

UTG: $6.13 (VPIP: 9.09, PFR: 9.09, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 11)
Hero (UTG+1): $10.00
MP: $15.54 (VPIP: 9.09, PFR: 9.09, 3Bet Preflop: 20.00, Hands: 11)
MP+1: $10.00 (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 5)
CO: $10.00 (VPIP: 18.00, PFR: 16.00, 3Bet Preflop: 7.14, Hands: 50)
BTN: $4.00 (VPIP: 24.44, PFR: 20.00, 3Bet Preflop: 15.00, Hands: 46)
SB: $3.90 (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 20)
BB: $10.98 (VPIP: 50.00, PFR: 30.00, 3Bet Preflop: 25.00, Hands: 11)

SB posts SB $0.05, BB posts BB $0.10

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.15) Hero has A Q

UTG raises to $0.30, Hero calls $0.30, fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, BB calls $0.20

With so little info on UTG (except he's played 1/11 hands), AQ is probably the top of my calling range in this spot. Seem about right?

IMO, it's an awkward spot with the aggression in the CO and BTN, especially with UTG only having 11 hands...

You've got a decent UTG with such a small sample size opening and you've got the aggression in LP. It's too dangerous to 3bet but it's also so, so to flat that far off the BTN with those two left to act behind. Honestly, I'd probably dump it and give up such a small edge until I had a better read on UTG then to get squeezed from LP. If LP was passive then I'd be much more comfortable with a flat with the intention of playing a small pot post, unless I flopped big. Big meaning P+FD, 2p, etc.

Obviously sample size on all players is ridiculously small but I would be calling expecting the BB to come along. He is the mark at the table and we want to be involved in pots with him and if it goes 3 way then there is usually the added bonus that the shorty will be pretty honest.

Yep seems right but does the fact that he is a short stack make any difference and there is a couple of SS's to play...not real sure.

You're overlooking that AQs is way ahead of their 3bet ranges. While calling OOP may not be that attractive, we can flat and then 4bet/backjam if they squeeze.
