sorry i guess you would call it 'zipcode' outside of the UK.if you put in '206.116.99.49' at http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl this is what comes up

OrgName: TELUS Communications Inc.
OrgID: TACE
Address: #2600 4720 Kingsway Avenue
City: Burnaby
StateProv: BC
PostalCode: V5N-4N2
Country: CA

is that possible with many IP addresses?

The address you goe was the address of the ISP that owns that IP address. It is NOT the address of the user of that IP address. That information can only be had with the help of the ISP, which they are typically NOT willing to give.
