I'm guessing not !

My thoughts are that actual tag use and combination statistics are as 
valuable (or more valuable) than theoretical tag suggestions. At the 
very least, discussions on tags used in Australia can be based on 
current actual usage.

Is anyone interested in looking at configuring the script to work with 
an Australian OSM excerpt? (such as the daily extract at 
http://osmaustralia.org/osmausextract.php)

I have no experience with Perl scripting but can find hosting for the 
website to make it available to everyone.

I see that the main Tagwatch site ( http://tagwatch.stoecker.eu/ ) 
hasn't updated since 11th June 2009, so the script could be broken with 
implementation of the API 0.6

I'd be happy to work on this as a side project with any other interested 
(especially script skilled) people.

Cheers :)
