It does say "Generally, only one "Placemark" is returned, though the
geocoder may return several results when address queries are
ambiguous.", which I will admit is a little ambiguous, but, if there
is more than one result it will return more than one "Placemark".
What that actually means will depend on the output format...

What output format are you requesting?

This page:
http://www.geocodezip.com/example_geo2.asp
handles multiple returned values, but it has gotten harder to find
queries that result in multiple results.  The last time I checked this
query returned multiple results:
http://www.geocodezip.com/example_geo2.asp?addr1=martinsville&geocode=1
(and it did just now also)
