Maybe you could convert a way with addr:interpolate into multiple points 
with single addresses and add them all to collection? Or maybe better 
use both ends of way and one or a few intermediate addresses?

I have filtered associatedStreet from bigger area and I have found many 
incomplete objects. But I hope it should be quite easy to rate object 
quality and discard wrong or redundant information.

Both: associatedStreet and addr:interpolation are documented:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:associatedStreet
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:addr#Tags_for_interpolation_ways

See statistics too:
