http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadastral_divisions_of_Australia covers the various divisions - counties, hundreds, parishes, land districts etc. You may also be interested in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torrens_Title which suggests the state land registries are the people to contact, but they're usually operated on a cost recovery basis. For example, WA has datasets including road centrelines, property street address: http://www.landgate.wa.gov.au/corporate.nsf/web/Fundamental +Datasets?OpenDocument http://www.walis.wa.gov.au/resources/gis_resources/web_mapping.html/ has guidelines on web mapping using these datasets, but they don't really account for OSM usage, so ministerial pressure might have to be sought.
