You do not need a sponsor for a 60 Day Tourist Visa. It is fine to send your passport to an Indonesian Consulate or Embassy by registered mail. You should enclose a self addressed registered mail envelope for the return of your passport.
Anither option is to go to Malaysia before the 30 days are up and return for another 30 days aka the "visa run".
I rang the Indonesian Embassy last year in Canberra and asked what was required to get a 60 Day Visa. The consular staff responded by saying that I had to supply the following:
• $A60.00 Money Order payable to the Embassy of Indonesia;
• Two completed Visa Application Forms (the form can be downloaded from the website for the Indonesian Embassy in Canberra);
• A valid passport with at least six months validity;
• Two passport photographs;
• An itinerary;
• Evidence of a return ticket.
