Ok folks I have bombed around for a few days trying to find a good solution for this one. What I have is two possible address formats.
28 Main St Somecity, NY 12345-6789    
or 
Main St Somecity, Ny 12345-6789
What I need to do Is split both strings down into an array structured as such
address[0] = HousNumber 
address[1] = Street 
address[2] = City 
address[3] = State 
address[4] = ZipCode
My major problem is how to account for the lack of a house number. with out having the whole array shift the data up one.
address[0] = Street 
address[1] = City 
address[2] = State 
address[3] = ZipCode
[Edit]
For those that are wondering this is what i am doing atm . (cleaner version)
     place = response.Placemark[0];
        point = new GLatLng(place.Point.coordinates[1],place.Point.coordinates[0]);
    FCmap.setCenter(point,12);
        var a = place.address.split(',');
        var e = a[2].split(" ");
        var x = a[0].split(" ");
        var hn = x.filter(function(item,index){
            return index == 0;
        });
                var st = x.filter(function(item,index){
                    return index != 0;
                });
                var street = ''; 
                st.each(function(item,index){street += item + ' ';});
        results[0] = new Hash({
                        FullAddie:  place.address,
                        HouseNum:   hn[0],
                        Dir:        '',
                        Street:     street,
                        City:       a[1],
                        State:      e[1],
                        ZipCode:    e[2],
                        GPoint:     new GMarker(point),
                        Lat:        place.Point.coordinates[1],
                        Lng:        place.Point.coordinates[0]
                        });
        // End Address Splitting
