I have managed to move all street type stuff to the end of the name with 
rules of the type below (thanks Henning) in the lines file:
highway=* & name ~ '[aA]venida .*' { add 
streettype:movedend='${name|subst:Avenida |subst:avenida }, Avenida'}
highway=* & streettype:movedend=* {set name='${streettype:movedend}'}
It works fine for searching streets purposes, but now the problem is 
that house numbers are not found. I have tried adding the following 
lines to the points file, but it doesn't make the desired effect.
addr:housenumber=* & addr:street ~ '[aA]venida .*' { add 
streettype:movedend='${addr:street|subst:Avenida |subst:avenida }, Avenida'}
addr:housenumber=* & streettype:movedend=* {set 
addr:street='${streettype:movedend}'}
Any idea how could I get house numbers match street names again?
