We actually tried something similar to that, and when we started reviewing and sanity-checking its output, got maybe 50% accuracy. Nearly 100% accurate in city areas, much lower for our rural customers. I ended up having one of my techs basically re-do the whole thing by hand over the course of a couple quiet Saturdays. At that time, we had around 1000 addresses to geocode, so it was feasible, but it might not be so for larger outfits. "Trust, but verify."
