Of course I post and then realise that I missed a big one...  The password 
format is different between AIX and Linux.  I got round this by using 
jinja2 to convert the format for me...

- name: add accounts for AIX
  user: name={{item.name}} append=yes createhome=yes group=group
          shell={{osshell}} uid={{item.uid}} comment={{item.comment}}
          state={{item.state}} update_password=on_create
          password={{item.password | replace("$1$", "{smd5}", 1)| 
replace("$5$", 
"{ssha256}", 1) | replace("$6$", "{ssha512}", 1) }}
  with_items: localuserlist
  when: ansible_os_family == "AIX"

I realise that may not be the best way of doing this but it works well. 
 Most of the other differences that I have found so far are things that I 
can work around by using variables.
