Do you find that when chatting on the internet you throw in Americanisms?

Plus we speak really really fast which makes misunderstanding us even easier.

Mind you its the Aussies who pronounce 'six' as 'seeex'.

No, actually Kiwi's pronounce 'six' the same way Aussies pronounce 'sex', and Aussies pronounce 'sex' the same way Kiwi's pronounce 'six'.

It's all very confusing.

 Yes but Kiwis pronounce it with an actual 'i' sound, just not as pronounced as the 'i' sound in most accents (hence the confusion with 'sex') however the Australian accent doesn't even attempt an 'i' sound, its blatantly an 'e' sound.
