As far as my experience goes, Noisy Miners will dive with that characteristic beak clack but never actually hit. I get dived by them all the time in breeding season. Same mostly goes for Lapwings, although I did have a friend who got hit when he tried to jump out of the way - the poor bird was already turning to avoid him. Magpies on the other had sometimes seem to deliberately hit people. I got dived last year and hit squarely in the back of the head - almost knocked me out.
