Most complete source of international address formats?

I'm looking for a source that describes the standard address format for most of the world's countries. I've found sources for the more prominent Western and Asian countries, but these sources tend to peter out pretty quickly when you get away from larger/more influential countries.

Ideally I'd like to see something similar this book book, but more up-to-date, and not in dead-tree form. Does such a data source exist?
