Reverse geocoding works great for getting the coordinates of a valid
postal address. The API call, however, does not return a point or
array of points if the query is something like 'www.mcdonalds.com'. If
you pass this search term into http://maps.Google.com, it does show
every McDonalds within the current viewport. Is there a way to utilize
the API in the same way that http://maps.google.com handles this?

As an example:

....
var geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();

function showAddress(address, fullContactHtml) {
    geocoder.getLatLng(address,
                function(point) {
/********** 'point' is null here when this function is called
*************/
                    var marker = new GMarker(point);
                    map.addOverlay(marker);
                    marker.bindInfoWindow(fullContactHtml);
                })
}

showAddress("www.mcdonalds.com", "<b>MacDonald's</b>");
