The very crude way is to pull in the poi into JOSM then save the .osm file
and bring it up in something like notepad++.
lat='45.472891' lon='-75.4891002'
Do we need all the digits for a a reasonable amount of accuracy?
It certainly looks like a fairly simple JOSM plug in could be built that

Y'know you don't have to go as far as Africa to find countries with

My experiences in Kenya are:
For individual areas the postcode is mostly unknown.
If you want to receive a letter you have to rent a PO Box at a post
office (which then also may serve as your 'address')
