Is there a posting somewhere that states what size bases we should be using for any given model? All I've found in the main rules are references to using that base as a frame of reference for targeting, but nothing about what size they should be.

There are no required base sizes, therefore, no.

If your model doesn't fall over when you set it down:bingo, it's the right size!

There's a deeper point here and it's about model size, if not base size.
What's to stop a player putting big, powerful unit in an army list but representing it by a tiny model? The consequence being that it would be very hard to see/hit.
This has happened in our school club. A total newbie put an ork boss in his list but used a goblin model on the table.
The rest of us cried foul, but the boy argued that it's up to him what a boss looks like.
Fair point?

Yes: fair point, indeed.
That actually is a matter of model size, instead of the OP's question about base size.
Using a model the size of a goblin makes about as much sense as using a nickel for the proxied Boss model. That probably should have gone to an all player consensus, or a roll-off to decide the validity of the model represented.
Base size is one of those petty little uber-nits that the hard-core Jee Dubyeh tournament neckbeards love to pick (to the great annoyance of us casual gamers).
