Isnt this a pure technical problem in finding the nearest node on the road
network for a given address?

You might want to take a look at something like the OSM Inspector
from Geofabrik. They have a preprocessing tool which searches for
the nearest road matching addr:street and constructing a node on
it - I think this is the tool processing OSM input and dumping a 
spatialite with address informations etc.
