If number of "|" is greater than 14
which requires the test (NF>15), because 14 delimiters mean 15 fields. The print statements can be simplified:
Code:
awk -F\| '{if(NF>15) print >> "a.txt"; else print >> "b.txt" }'

praudit(1M)                                               System Administration Commands                                               praudit(1M)

NAME

       praudit - print contents of an audit trail file

SYNOPSIS

       praudit [-lrsx] [-ddel] [filename...]

DESCRIPTION

       praudit  reads  the  listed  filenames  (or  standard input, if no filename is specified) and interprets the data as audit trail records as
       defined in audit.log(4). By default, times, user and group IDs (UIDs and GIDs, respectively) are converted to their  ASCII  representation.
       Record  type  and  event  fields  are converted to their ASCII representation. A maximum of 100 audit files can be specified on the command
       line.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -ddel    Use del as the field delimiter instead of the default delimiter, which is the comma. If del has special meaning for the shell,  it
                must  be  quoted. The maximum size of a delimiter is three characters. The delimiter is not meaningful and is not used when the -x
                option is specified.

       -l       Print one line per record.

       -r       Print records in their raw form. Times, UIDs, GIDs, record types, and events are displayed as integers. This  option  and  the  -s
                option are exclusive. If both are used, a format usage error message is output.

       -s       Print  records  in  their short form. All numeric fields are converted to ASCII and displayed. The short ASCII representations for
                the record type and event fields are used. This option and the -r option are exclusive. If both are used,  a  format  usage  error
                message is output.

       -x       Print records in XML form. Tags are included in the output to identify tokens and fields within tokens. Output begins with a valid
                XML prolog, which includes identification of the DTD which can be used to parse the XML.

FILES

       /etc/security/audit_event       Audit event definition and class mappings.

       /etc/security/audit_class       Audit class definitions.

       /usr/share/lib/xml/dtd          Directory containing the verisioned DTD file referenced in XML output, for example, adt_record.dtd.1.

       /usr/share/lib/xml/style        Directory containing the versioned XSL file referenced in XML output, for example, adt_record.xsl.1.

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE         |      ATTRIBUTE VALUE        |

       |Interface Stability          |See below                    |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

       The command stability is evolving. The output format is unstable.
