Google Maps API Encryption

Google Maps API Encryption

So this is my first time programming with Google's API, and StackOverflow
has been very resourceful, but before I get started, I have a requirement
that must be met.
First, the API will be passed two addresses. From there, I will need the
distance between these two points. This shouldn't be a problem.
The question is, can I pass these addresses encrypted/encoded? Meaning, I
don't want to pass "123 Main St.", I want to pass a scrambled string so
that the address cannot be read in the page source or any packet sniffer.
Does the Google Maps API support something like this (maybe a code
behind), or are there any workarounds/suggestions on how to accomplish
this requirement?
Thanks in advance!
