Funnily enough I am also planning volunteer work in Japan at the moment for May - August time. I will be doing WWOOFING, I have done this before and will be doing it again, and can not recommend it enough. This is staying with a host but it is really not as bad as you think and I have seen more females doing it than guys.
Check out this thread http://forum.koohii.com/showthread.php?tid=5128 where a few post down (and another one a few more down) I talk about my experiences with wwoofing.

I could also recommend a host which I have stayed with before and will be again. Hell we could even be at the same place at same time *creepy wink*
