If you have the chance of using a GIS database like PostGIS then simply import the file using osm2pgsql and make an SQL query that gives you all ways near a given position. No Java involved. If you must use Java, don't use the built-in JOSM parsers, use the libosm that comes with Osmosis and Traveling Salesman.
