The number of interchanges is unlimited. Usually 50-60 interchanges are performed, but sometimes well over 100 interchanges per match have been performed.
Australian rules football is officially 150 years old this year in 2008. Initially drafted in 1858 in Melbourne, the game drew on various drafts that existed in the british (empire) school system at the time (many of which included rules on carrying the ball, pushing/hacking or tackling and the number of players on field) and possibly was influenced by Indigenous/Aboriginal football documented in early lithographs of Victoria. This earliest documented draft pre-dates the formation of Associated Football (soccer) by five years.

Because it's one of the world's many football codes: association football (soccer), rugby football, Gaelic football, Australian rules football, and American/gridiron football. All of them except soccer allow use of the hands in open play. American football began as a kicking-oriented game. It wasn't until the first American colleges to play football met and standardized their rules, based on the English rugby code, that kicking played less of a role in the game. In fact, kicking remained a primary strategy until the forward pass was legalized in the early 20th century.
