Well, he's been to the southern parts of Middle-Earth. When Faramir gives his names, he is called Incánus in the south, Tharkûn to the Dwarves... I figure that he travelled all over the show looking for people that he could stir up against Sauron.

My guess is that he didn't have any luck at all in the south, despite the fact that some at least of Near Harad was formerly at peace with Gondor. Must have been pretty dangerous missions, if you ask me. I wonder if Aragorn went with him, or he went on his own?

Dol Guldur and the finding of Thráin was definitely his most famous spy mission. Very James Bond.
