Where to find a large imperfect database with sample addresses for geocoding

I am looking for an imperfect database with addresses that can be used to test a geocode script.

Criteria:

  1. Contain a representative sample (>10.000 entries) of global addresses
  2. Contain NoData and invalid addresses to test error handling
  3. Contain addresses that are ambiguous.

Nice to have:

  1. Various languages(arabic, mandarin etc.)
  2. Covering all continents (excl. Antarctica).
  3. Addresses in various formats (street, state, city, country | zip code, city, region etc. )
  4. Easy to get into a pandas dataframe or dask

Any idea where to find this?
