Dunno about online address finders..I use a map here..But the way to read the address is fairly straight forward..If different from other countries methods..
My old address here was;
202-0002
東京都
武蔵村山市
神明4丁目５番地の２

This reads in English/Romaji as;

Tokyo to (Tokyo prefecture)
Musashimurayama Shi (Musashimurayama City)
Shinmei 4 chome (4th designated section of Shinmei-area of city-)
5 Banchi no 2 (5th section inside the 4th are of Shinmei, block number 2).
Then lastly is the postcode..202-0002
If you have a map you look first for Tokyo prefecture. Then for Musashimurayama City, then Shinmei, then the number 4, then the block that is counted as number 5....That was my house.
Simple ne?
