This is for anyone who is struggling to install osgExport on windows or mac 
for use with Blender.

The configuration which currently works for me uses Blender 2.49 (thanks 
Cedric!)

Windows 7

1)Download and install Blender 2.49
2)The scripts folder is in your hidden AppData folder.
So on my PC that is found at C:\Users\Aaron\AppData\Roaming\Blender 
Foundation\Blender\.blender\scripts
3)Download https://bitbucket.org/cedricpinson/osgexport/get/tip.zip
4)Copy the folder blenderExporter to the directory in step 2

If you run blender you will now see you have "OpenSceneGraph (.osg)" as an 
export option. 

Mac OSX Snow Leopard 

1)Download Blender 2.49
2)Drag the Blender executable to Applications or run it as is in its downloaded 
location
3)The folder we are looking for is in blender.app
So on my Mac for example the script folder is here
/Users/aw/Downloads/blender-2.49b-OSX-10.5-py2.5-intel/blender.app/Contents/MacOS/.blender/scripts
If you have put it in Applications then the above will be 
/Applications/blender.app/Contents/MacOS/.blender/scripts
4)Download https://bitbucket.org/cedricpinson/osgexport/get/tip.zip
5)Copy the folder blenderExporter to the directory in step 3

If you run blender you will now see you have "OpenSceneGraph (.osg)" as an 
export option. 

A note on Blender 2.57 :
I installed the script given by damyon here-> 
http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?p=39897#39897
but unfortunately it doesnt work with armatures and a number of other test 
files I tried so until that happens 2.57 isnt a viable option.

However if at some point it is fixed then one should note that currently the 
install location is slightly different. This might change again but basically 
instead of copying the folder blenderExporter to the scripts folder you need to 
copy the contents of the folder blenderExporter to the scripts/addons folder 
and then enable the script under User Preferences ->Add-ons
