Find CPU per process in AIX

Hi.

I am looking for a command that will return me the amount of CPU used by a specific process in AIX environment.
I know there is TOPAS - but it is interactive and I need to get this information from system that connects remotely via SSH.
Using writing to files and than reading them is also not good.

In Solaris for example I do :
Code:
prstat 1 1 | grep app| nawk '{print $1"|-|"$9}'

or in linux :
Code:
top -n 1 -b | grep app| awk '{print $1"|-|"$9}'

while it returns for each PID the CPU.

Can you think of a non-interactive command like that in AIX that can return this information like prstat or top in linux ?

P.S : I don't have either TOP or NMON installed since it is not coming out of the box in AIX so I can't count on that.

Thanks Smilie

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
