I started some work in this area over a year ago for my client, but we
didn't get real far.  However, I do know that CD is available for a fairly
nominal charge from USPS, depending on number of states iirc, with periodic
updates (monthly or quarterly).  The CD contained detailed info on valid
addresses down to street level.  I did a query on zips/states, but don't
recall the results.

Also seen, but don't recall, what the license specifics were, as far as a
TAA Tool would go.  (Tool would be useful, but probably could NOT include
the info on CD unless USPS was paid on per copy basis, and/or customers
already had CD.)
