Seems that sha256 and rmd160 is a joke for most users here, all those partial address are not useful at all.
With a high level of entropy that sha256+rmd160 provides, I would say that from a mathematical point of view, the desired address is quite far from addresses starting with similar letters. Therefore, in theory, we can exclude some ranges from search where addresses with similar prefixes was found. But anyway the real random is the kind of thing from which you can expect anything.
