I have a address I am working with; 323 N Fifth Ave, Sequim WA, 98382. Now I use both commercial and internally developed data that goes into a composite geocoder set in a hierarchy based on the quality of said sources; pretty standard stuff.

So how can I get a result returned like this:

Score: 100.0

Address: 323 NORTH ST, SEQUIM, WA, 98382

Loc_name: HERE_Points

Score: 100

Match_addr: 323 NORTH ST, SEQUIM, WA, 98382

House: 323

Side: L

PreDir:

PreType:

StreetName: NORTH

SufType: ST

SufDir:

City: SEQUIM

State: WA

ZIP: 98382

Where the 'NORTH' as the street Name and 'ST' as SufType as swapped and the score of 100.0 is assigned. While further down the composite process I get this return as well:

Score: 100.0

Address: 323 N 5TH AVE, SEQUIM, WA, 98382

Loc_name: HERE_Streets

Score: 100

Match_addr: 323 N 5TH AVE, SEQUIM, WA, 98382

House:

Side: L

PreDir: N

PreType:

StreetName: 5TH

SufType: AVE

SufDir:

City: SEQUIM

State: WA

ZIP: 98382

How can I get a 100.0 score for both of these results in my composite; where obviously the first one swapped the street elements pretty extremely.

Maybe Bruce Harold​ , Agatha Wong​ or Brad Niemand​ can give me some insight; this is confusing us.

It might be something handled better with the latest USA locator styles.

There is a PointAddress quality 323 North St and it looks like scoring isn't handling it ideally in your composite.

Here is how AGOL does:

Shouldn't the USAddress.lot.xml from 10.4.1 be the most current?

Yes, but in corner scoring cases we may be able to help.
